| | |  Libraries told to hush up
Libraries are being asked to sign papers stating they won’t disclose any information regarding Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows until the book’s final release date. In fact, according to library officials in Davis County, Utah, the terms of the HP contract are stricter than in previous years. They aren’t allowed to let any unauthorized staff anywhere near the books. Quote:
We've signed four agreements promising to keep mum. We can't allow anyone to see, touch or handle the books except for those who have to get them ready.
I think we'd better do it to avoid getting a spell cast on us.
Note: The article incorrectly lists the release date for Deathly Hallows as April 21 when it is actually July 21. | |

Well I mean I can understand why. Of course they are going to be strict about it. I mean everyone wants to get their hands on those books asap. I can understand why J.K wants to keep it hush hush until she releases them. Cause like if someone reads it and tells someone else the ending. And then they tell someone else and so on, the effect of the book is ruined. But i soo can't wait to find out!!!!!

Yeah honestly I hope no early releases are done. Some people are just so desperate. They need to learn that we all have to wait.

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. | |

If I was from the publisher or the writer, I'd want everybody signing those contracts.

I don't mind it releasing on April 21. That would be so awesome. I didn't know libraries had to keep quiet about it.

HAHAH! I could see my librarian, petting the books and growling anytime someone came to near.  Ya, I see why. I bet a few people would jack the books if left somewhere easy to reach...
