I totally agree too! Their policies of sending police is at least weird. They abviously have to describe the real requirements on their website.

You’re very kind – thanks for giving me the benefit of the doubt!

Let’s see – yes, definitely going for the attention-grabbing headline. No, I really didn’t like the billboards – I find them short-sighted. But that said, it’s obviously a very mixed bag here. Some people love them, others not so much.

PR – they got people talking. Good on them!

I guess it depends on the way you look at it. (David, I’m guessing your cup of java was late unless you were going for the attention grabbing headline…similar to that of MPL…..) If they were going for PR- (and I think they were…) BULLS eye! EVERYONE is a buzz. Most of the feedback is positive and I’d be interested in the increase of web traffic. I checked their website and social media sites out when I first saw the ads (I personally love that they made me double take…then I investigated…another PR point for MPL. ) and clearly they support social media. As eBooks are another form of reading characters I’d say they could have been referring to those eBooks/eReaders as well. I know I’m rambling but as I do I’m calming down, thinking that my favorite library blogger was not seeing the big picture…he was merely calling attention to a great campaign…yeah, that’s it. Whew, you scared me for a minute David.

I actually love these ads – very clever and hitting the right market. Way to go Milwaukee Public Library! Now we just need live exhibits at the Museum and we are ready to go!

You can’t read too much into this or take it personally, I think that’s when it might start to sound elitist or judgmental. They’re not really meant for us to meditate on like a piece of art, they’re meant to catch a driver’s attention for a second while they’re zooming by.

Besides, you can’t deny that there’s plenty of timewasting going on in these sites– not everyone uses them to work or start revolutions! Some of us are just giggling at the latest “Sh*t ______s say” video.
