VIDEO: A (Not So) Surprise Shout! At the Library

Reading librarians organize flash mob for Library Snapshot Day.

Wednesday was not a day to be quiet at the Reading Public Library—for a short time, anyway.

For just over five minutes, librarians and patrons danced, clapped and sang along to the song "Shout!" as the staff brought a little levity to Library Snapshot Day.

Throughout the day, librarians asked patrons to fill out a form explaining why they came to the library, and Librarian Lorraine Barry said the staff wanted to give Reading residents a fun reason to visit as they filled out their surveys.
