Although an excellent strip that shows library work as it is or as it should be, the five stars is based almost entirely on the very last page, which features an interaction between this cast of characters and those from Ambaum's previous library-centered strip, Unshelved. Priceless! I'd love more of that! ( )

Another joyous book of workplace humor from Ambaum and company from the online comic strip Library Comic is now available in print. This makes it a “real book” according to Martin, a librarian in the strip adverse to online anything. Martin is the bearded one on the cover that everyone else is desperately checking the shelves to find. In library jargon it’s a process known as doing a shelf check to find a misplaced book.

If you are a person who thinks libraries are boring, the scriptwriter knows different, he works in one. It true you won’t find people working there who will be as snarky in public as the employees of this public library (however a warning is hidden in panel 1 on page 68). Shelf Check is filled with LOL human interactions, including one bonus crossover strip inked by Unshelved artist Bill Barnes. ( )

I love this webcomic so much! The successor to "Unshelved" which was also set in a library, Library Comic showcases silly and true encounters with public library patrons. ( )
