Not "Where is the large print?"

Not, "Do you have any large print." Rather it was. "Why don't you have any large print?" Which we do. Big sign. Prominent location for the collection. Lots of stuff.

Not, "Thanks...I guess I overlooked it. My eyesight isn't what it used to be. Rather it was, "Oh."

Once we had a flasher in the large print corner. Although I felt very bad for the old lady he exposed himself to, I was very amused that it took her awhile to figure out what he was doing due to her poor eyesight.

Our large print area is opposite the ref desk, and is usually passed by the patrons, who then ask if we have a LP section. When we point out the GINORMOUS sign(seriously, 2-foot letters), the response is almost always,(sic)"Oh! If it was a snake, it would have bit me!"
