Great library sign.

I love this sign. Libraries always struggle with how to explain to users that they can ask for help. "Reference" is meaningless jargon to most users. Any particular library might want to change the words on the sign to reflect their services, but this can be seen from various angles, is entertaining, and covers all your bases. Anyone know where it is from?


An explosion of assistance

Jonathan,
Looks like this is from the Mulva Library at St. Norbert College in De Pere, Wisconsin (see http://ki.com/vr/mulva/informationCenter.html).

I think I saw it at Red Queen's College, in the Library of Disinformation. I believe you can contact Alice, their head of reference for the specifications for this installation.
