The remaining ones show that except interesting books, a library is full of fascinating people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the list below, you&#8217;ll find comic strips from recognized cartoonists, such as Tom Gauld, Grant Snider, Mark Anderson, or Scott Adams. We&#8217;ve also discovered nice comic strips from young artists on deviantART.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are very much into libraries, you should follow two cartoonists that devote a majority of their comic strips to these wonderful places.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the recommended artists is Alex Krentzin. The place to check out is <a title=\"Alex... The Librarian\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/AlexTheLibrarian\">Alex&#8230; The Librarian<\/a> Facebook fan page where you&#8217;ll be regularly updated with funny library-related comic strips. A few of them are listed below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The other artist is Emily Lloyd. She started a library webcomic <a title=\"Shelf Check\" href=\"http:\/\/shelfcheck.blogspot.com\/\">Shelf Check<\/a> and published over 500 clever comic strips and various kinds of images, including animated gifs. Just imagine: most of them happen in the library &#8211; and all of them are funny!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Libraries are boring places where you fall asleep after five minutes\u2026 Really? Cartoons and comic strips selected for this list will prove it&#8217;s is just the opposite.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>[ef-reco id=&#8221;102230&#8243; title=&#8221;Read also&#8221; info=&#8221;Top article&#8221;]<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Best library cartoons to make you smile<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"nmb wp-block-heading\">1<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ebookfriendly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/Reading-Quirks-Libraries-are-sexy-containers-of-human-knowledge.jpeg?resize=540%2C540&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Reading Quirks - Libraries are sexy containers of human knowledge\" class=\"wp-image-127327\" width=\"540\" height=\"540\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ebookfriendly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/Reading-Quirks-Libraries-are-sexy-containers-of-human-knowledge.jpeg?resize=540%2C540&amp;ssl=1 540w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ebookfriendly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/Reading-Quirks-Libraries-are-sexy-containers-of-human-knowledge.jpeg?resize=220%2C220&amp;ssl=1 220w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ebookfriendly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/Reading-Quirks-Libraries-are-sexy-containers-of-human-knowledge.jpeg?resize=768%2C768&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ebookfriendly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/Reading-Quirks-Libraries-are-sexy-containers-of-human-knowledge.jpeg?resize=332%2C332&amp;ssl=1 332w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ebookfriendly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/Reading-Quirks-Libraries-are-sexy-containers-of-human-knowledge.jpeg?resize=100%2C100&amp;ssl=1 100w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ebookfriendly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/Reading-Quirks-Libraries-are-sexy-containers-of-human-knowledge.jpeg?resize=65%2C65&amp;ssl=1 65w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ebookfriendly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/Reading-Quirks-Libraries-are-sexy-containers-of-human-knowledge.jpeg?resize=160%2C160&amp;ssl=1 160w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ebookfriendly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/Reading-Quirks-Libraries-are-sexy-containers-of-human-knowledge.jpeg?w=840&amp;ssl=1 840w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sexy containers of human knowledge<\/strong>.
