Top 10 Reasons
Why Students
DO NOT
Go the
PCC Library

	Winter Haven Campus		PCC/USF Lakeland Campus
1.	Time, Time, Time!!!!	1.	Time and more Time!!! (we are working to get the day extended from 24 for 28 hours)
2.	I have Internet at home (Ya, well so do I and I have to be here)	2.	I don't have to (restrooms are across the hall - we were asking about the library... big room with books)
3.	It's inconvenient/Doesn't match my schedule (we tried to tell our boss that, but he didn't care)	3.	It's too crowded/Not enough computers
4.	I don't have to	4.	It's too far (Ya man, we're like far-out)
5.	It's way up on the 3rd Floor (oooo scary)	5.	Library doesn't have what I want? (we have materials request forms - tell us what do you want????)
6.	Need sleep (actually, we have many people who find the library is a wonderful place to sleep - we just don't like it when you snore)	6.	I have Internet at home
7.	Need refreshments (don't we all)	7.	It's too quiet (surpising, considering #3 says it's too crowded - must be crowds of mimes - very scary)
8.	It's too crowded - too many people (the more the merrier)	8.	It's too confusing to use (We are here to help you! - we don't bite... much)
9.	It's always closed (I'm getting paid to be here 40 hours a week and the first thing we do is unlock the door - well... right after the coffees made)	9.	I go to the TLCC instead (We like them too - at least your keeping it in the family)
10.	It's too confusing to use	10.	Doesn't match my schedule

And here are some additional answers that did not make the top ten list, but are worthy of a place on this prestigious web site.

I don't go to the PCC Library because...

I can't go in my underwear
(sure you can... just wear something over your underwear - we do it everyday.)

The Librarians are mean
(Only when we whip the cream and beat the eggs... never mind that's chefs)

I'm busy looking for Jesus
(Good luck)

Where's the ice rink, I want to ride the Zamboni
(Insurance issues and Bill had to take the Zamboni to be serviced - sorry)

People scare me - there are too many quiet corners
(me too - that's why I stay our here at the reference desk)

I think someone is stalking me
(Silly, that's just the librarian)

It smells funny in there
(That's all the knowledge, remember)

The desks need telephones
(My desk has a telephone - and I usually wish it didn't)

I think someone is stalking me
(Silly, that's just the librarian)

I can get plenty of Internet porn at home
(and let's just keep it that way)

I'm at home
(Yup, that pretty much would defy the laws of nature if you were in two places at once)

I think someone is stalking me
(Silly, that's just the librarian)

You have to be quiet and on your best behavior
(Someone should have told us this earlier - certainly explains a lot)

I didn't know we had a library
(It's the place with the books)

My ID picture is ugly
(Put your thumb over it - unless your thumb is ugly too)

It's embarrassing to watch my friend hitting on the librarians
(but think of the joy it brings the librarian)

The cute guy isn't there
(He's got to be somewhere)

I just rent the movie instead
("Return of the Encyclopedia Britannica!!!" - Ya, I saw that one)

I might see someone there that I don't like
(Geez... talk about a 1/2 empty glass)
