Michigan-Dearborn Library Removes All The Books

stevenj writes “What will those zany college newspaper editors think of next for their annual spoof issues. From an article in The Michigan Journal, the student newspaper of the University of Michigan-Dearborn titled “Michigan Library to Remove All Books; Students Won’t Notice”:


Students visiting UM-D’s newly-renovated Mardigian Library will find plenty of room to study and hang out, now that the books are gone. Library administrators undertook the renovations in response to a Student Government petition, removing all books and shelving and installing a state-of-the-art sound system and night club-style lighting.


When you think about it, maybe that part about “Students Won’t Notice” may not be so outlandish.
