I honestly never thought there was such a clichéd novel out there...but then, I never actually looked!

Is Rachel Robinson (a.k.a sexy librarian) the only one on campus who doesn't know who Devin Freedman is? No big deal except that the bad-boy rock star gets a kick out of Rachel's refusal to worship at his feet. And that seems to have provoked his undivided attention. It's up to this librarian to find out firsthand just how "bad" he really is.

Brigham Young University's Harold B. Lee Library uses parody to reach students in this funny and very persuasive video. Comedian and BYU student Stephen Jones stars as the "Old Spice guy," a straight-A superhero able to coax students out from their dorm rooms and into the library with only a laptop, a sub sandwich, and a library cart. Hilarious!

Lord of the Libraries, a spoof on Tolkien's Lord of the Rings, is Chris Martin's second film created for KU Libraries. Elves, dwarves, and men battle a brood of librarian castouts while the Hobbits make a mad dash across campus to return The Book of Power, a text 30 years overdue. Not only is the video visually stunning, it is hilarious to watch.
