The coolest bookcase

Where do you least expect to find a fridge?

Yes, precisely that - in a library! Some time ago, FAB28RR1 decided that he needed to learn more, to occupy his mind and make some progress in the field of literature so he accepted a job in the Hoogeveen Library in Holland. FAB28RR1’s job is to promote all the newest collections of young adult books to the younger visitors of the Library, and he does this by using different themes. FAB28RR1 chooses content especially to captivate and delight the young target group.

Occasionally FAB28RR1 likes to surprise the visitors, especially when his door is closed because nobody suspects what is inside, they see him and ask themselves “what is a refrigerator doing in the middle of a library?” FAB28RR1’s presence stirs the curiosity of young visitors and encourages them to discover books with varied themes. He first promoted Young Jury books, then he was filled with romance…what will come next? You’ll have to go visit the library to find out! Have you ever seen such a cool bookcase?
