People ask ASKIJS, newspapers and libraries
questions like these.
Reporters, school kids and even television
producers call to get answers to questions,
said Dan Boice, a reference librarian at
Thomas Cooper Library.
"Friday nights arc great for barroom bet
questions," he said.
Sometimes the Thomas Cooper I ibrary's
staff gets a question such as "Where was this
book published?" or "When was the first
pyramid built?" Boice said. I or excitement,
the staff looks up the answers.
"Friday nights seem to be wacko time, but
we re usually pretty slow on rinlays so we
look them up," he said.
Boice said he got a call once I torn a

Richland County Public Library, said people
usually call with strange questions when there
are community trivia contests going on.
Richardson said people have asked her
various things such as "How to slaughter a
hog," "Mow to build a still" and "What's
the distance between this city and that city?"
When asked it" the library staff honors such
calls, Richardson said, "Sure we do. We're
here to answer questions."
She said they don't usually answer
homework questions but might if the questions
were short.
The State newspaper also gets interesting
questions from callers but most arc just "kids

The State employees will answer questions
