I don't know about other libraries, but here in Brisbane (Australia), in every library, there's always an announcement every ~10 minutes:

"Theieves are operating on campus. [for Uni library]  Please don't leave valuables unattended."

At the Brisbane City Council libraries, it's like every ~5 minutes.


Just wondering, does this happen at any other Australian library?  Or perhaps elsewhere in the world?
I wonder what started this - maybe there was a big robbery perhaps?

Nope never here in Melbourne.

Oh okay, a Brisbane oddity... >_>

Though Queensland does have one of the highest proportion of robbery related cases in Australia.

nope, not where i live :)

"Theives are operating..."

Just say that to your self, you'll find out how silly that sounds.

Thieves are operating. To request your free nose job please sign up at the counter


by the way no ive never even heard a single announcement in any library ever (not that ive spent more than 10 hours there in my life, in total)

Even better, try and say it out loud in a public place.

After hearing it hundreds of times, it somehow doesn't sound silly anymore... >_>
