The New York Public Library Has a Human Google

At the New York Public Library, you can call a librarian who will answer any researchable question you might have. The help-line has been around for over 40 years, and to this day it receives more than 30,000 calls a year. Need to know the color of an arctic fox's eyes? Ever wonder if there are full moons every night in Acapulco? Well, if Google isn't your thing, these librarians have got your answer.

    Protip: if NYC is long distance for you, try your local library. This is a very normal service offered by most libraries, it's just that most libraries don't have a dedicated department for it, so the librarian who helps you with reference questions at your local public or academic library probably has many other duties as well.

One time I got a call from a person on the road and they asked how to get to a particular place. I had to look up Google maps and guide them to it because their phone didn't have gps. Good times 😂 I love being a librarian because information is rampant, the correct information is not. Stay informed folks!
