Pok\u00e9mon Go pests infesting your reading room? Who you gonna call? Student intern! Problem: your once peaceful reading room has been overrun with strange colourful pests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Drowzees were found all over the place, whether it be hiding with our reel collection…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

…or sitting by the Archives entrance waiting for archival research assistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking of sitting, a Jynx was spotted on top of the Normal School desk. It seemed to be enjoying itself hanging out with Egerton Ryerson and our resident Kodak Kolorkin genealogist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Pidgey was discovered lounging on the architectural model of the Toronto Normal School and St. James Square.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pok\u00e9mon seem to really enjoy our architectural models as a Bellsprout was found listening in on a meeting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Rattata was seen keeping one of the reading room tables all to itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even the books from Special Collections were infested with Zubats flying around the shelves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, our biggest problem seems to be in the stacks. In the span of a few minutes a Gastly, a Rattata, and a Spearow had to be caught in order to keep everything in order!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We’ve resorted to hanging these pheromone traps around the archives and tracking them down…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

…but if anybody can think of a better way to capture and remove these critters, we’d love to hear from you. We’d hate to have to resort to letting these hard workers out of their box…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

…but if we need to, our contingency plan involves setting up intricate sugary lattice traps in the hopes of attracting and capturing these pests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
