Library Lunacy
Logic puzzles require you to think. You will have to be logical in your reasoning.
A public library suddenly announced that each member could borrow an unlimited number of books and not return them for up to six months. Why?
Answer
The library was moving to a new building, but due to poor budgeting, they had little money left for the move. By giving borrowers extra time, it ensures that the borrowers moved most of the books.

| Generally, in most libraries you are allowed to check out and then return them anywhere, as long as it's in the same city. But, still, good teaser! It had me thinking! |

| Like it. I thought the building had caught fire, but if that happened no one would want to stop to collect books would they. guess I was just being dumb!! |

| I kinda guessed something like that.
I dont think this teaser should be in the "logic" section. |

| You know, my town just built a new library and it cost quite a bit, too bad no one thought of this!  |

| I liked this one. I thought the library was being remodeled and they were trying to get as many books out of the way as possible. |

| ok, they'd lose all their books that way since all the patrons get unlimited books- hope they'd have a good legal stance to collect late fees & lost fees on all of them |
