Clean up your library!
As a Library Clean-Up Crew custodian, you’re responsible for keeping degenerate filth from innocent eyes. Here’s how you can do your part, no matter what your situation:
Operation: Time Out
If you have a library card, you hold the golden key to locking up filthy books.
Find the worst of them and check them out from your library, holding them for as long as possible. Does your library offer remote book renewal? Take full advantage! Does your library have a remote checkout program? Even better!
Make it a part of your regular visits: take a few more into Time Out, and you’ll make the library safer for children every time.
Operation: Hide and Seek
Some trash deserves to be swept under the rug.
If you’re browsing your local library and come upon an unsightly book, simply hide it within the library in a section nobody seeks. High shelves, old volumes, obscure literary reviews; degenerate filth is better off located where nobody looks.
Custodians move quietly; hide a few books at a time and see if they’re even sought out.
Operation: Tag
Sometimes checking out or hiding books is impractical; as an LCUCrew custodian you may find yourself cleaning up unfamiliar libraries where you may not have a means to remove bad books. You can still make a huge impact by doing some detail work:
Get a stock of Holy Cards and carry them with you while you browse. Discover a degenerate book? Open to just before the most deplorable section and wedge the card firmly into the binding. If a child unfortunately happens upon the book, they’ll have something pure to behold, which may just turn away their attention.
