Tune: Camelot
The doors are open every day in winter
The hours are friendly, and the staff is too
Equipment’s there to find the answers
At the li- brar-y!
It doesn’t matter if you’re young or older
Or living with a dis-a-bil-it-y
In short there’s simply not
A more congenial spot
Or happiness in learning than the
Pub-lic Li-brar-y!
Library! Library!
It makes a person pause
To the library! The library!
For learning is the cause!
Don’t worry if you don’t know how to use it
Or your English isn’t up to speed
The staff will help you find what you are needing
At the Li-brar-y!
For books and videos and even music,
For magazines and Internet and news
In short there’s simply not
A more congenial spot
For happiness in learning than the
Pub-lic Li-brar-y!
