“So a comedian walks into a library and decides to work there…”

Join Stand-Up Librarian Meredith Myers for an all ages literary comedy show…at the library! No cover charge or 2-drink minimum required. A cross between Pippi Longstocking and Sandra Bernhard, Meredith entertains while educates about the importance of libraries as she addresses everything from the Dewey Decimal System to Harry Potter. Bring a love of reading and get ready to laugh.

Comedian/Librarian Meredith Myers has a Masters degree in Library and Information Sciences and has been performing stand-up comedy since 2002 after checking out a comedy book from her local library. Binding her experiences in comedy and libraries, Meredith's mission is to entertain while educating people about the importance of libraries.
