Arr, Today be National Talk Like A Pirate Day!

Display on Piracy.

Ahoy, mateys. Today marks the 10th Annual National Talk Like A Pirate Day! There are several things you can do to participate in this day of fun. You can change the language of your Facebook to English (Pirate). You can also use the Tarleton Libraries Mango Languages database to learn to talk pirate.

Why does it take Pirates so long to learn the alphabet? Because they can spend years at C! (Please Pause to Laugh...you know it's funny!)

You can search Discovery to find books on pirates, the history of piracy, and modern piracy, or stop by the New Books display and "checkout" the books that have already been selected.

Why are pirates pirates? Because they ARRRRRR!!(Again..just laugh.)

Talk like a Pirate, ye scurvy dogs!!
