the team happens to know at least two librarians who don't like the term patrons for library users but that is bearsides the point. the actual point is that you should have referred to us us a libeary

Dear bear gods,

What are your thoughts on spirit bears? I find them to be quite interesting.

Sincerely,

A patron.

Hi friend. We know you are asking for our thoughts on spirit bears (they are great and we love them) but we must point you to the definition of patron

which would imply that we are financially profiting from your patronage. However Bearotonin International is an entirely free non-profit organization which makes zero money whatsoever. Therefore there can be no bearotonin patrons, as we have no supported monetary business model, we have only fellow bear loving friends

#Punday Monday #according to our librarian friends there's some debate within the library field what to call library users #some people like the term patron #some like customer #some like neither #(we're not discrediting your expertise in Library™ friend)#(we are simply throwing additional information we possess at the situation so that we can say we aren't wrong)#(we REALLY don't like being wrong)#lol #anyways #it's punday monday #never miss a pun opp
