A New Song About The Modern Librarian
by indie pop band SNMNMNM
Librarians have appeared in pop culture as shushers, spinsters, even sex symbols. What about solvers of great conundrums, masters and mistresses of organization, purveyors of intellectual freedom?!
"Addy Will Know" avoids the stereotypes and is a musical tribute to the modern librarian.
Addy is the name of a real librarian that leads a lost patron to the four books he is looking for.
The song itself includes actual call letters that correspond to the books hinted at in the verse.
Since "Addy Will Know" is esentially a song about you, the modern librarian, we want you to participate!
1. Be in our video!
Record yourself singing the song at work or school, upload your video to sendpace/yousendit/etc, and then email us the link. We will edit your video with all the others creating a video collage of modern librarians.
2. Enter our contest!
Be one of the first 10 librarians to identify the books of the call numbers mentioned in the song and you will win an copy of the new cd "Crawl Inside Your Head" Read our contest rules and then email you answer here.
3. Get your local college radio station to play the song.
"Addy" will hit the college airwaves September 3, 2007. Contact your local college or university radio station now and request that they "ADD ADDY!"
