Librarians to Portland readers: 'Show us your tats!'

Related Topics: Tattoo, Librarian

PORTLAND, Ore. -- Crazy looking bees. Flying hearts. Oh, and skulls - lots of skulls.

Those are just a few of the tattoos from those of a literary bent posted on the Multnomah County Library’s Twitter account for their #books4tats campaign.

Steve Roskoski, a library assistant, said he and his fellow librarians (some with their own tattoos) came up with the idea to match readers with books based on their tats. It’s Portland after all.

“Book recommending and finding people good reads is something we do every day here at the Multnomah County Library,” Roskoski said.
