A library’s social media team has left people in stitches, thanks to a tongue-in-cheek photo that they shared online.
The Facebook post from the Invercargill City Libraries and Archives in New Zealand’s South Island has gone viral – and you’ll be surprised to see why.
To mark the tenth anniversary of Keeping up with the Kardashians, the team decided to show everyone their sense of humour by recreating an iconic Kardashian photoshoot.

Mimicking the Hollywood Reporter cover that the Kardashians did earlier in the year, the team can be seen hilariously trying to replicate the shot.
‘It has been 10 years since the Kardashians first graced our screens. To celebrate, our social media team decided to have a totally impromptu, definitely not planned, photo-shoot,’ the caption reads.
At the time of writing, the Facebook post has received over 5,000 likes – with more than 4,000 appearing in less than a day.

At the time of writing, the Facebook post has received over 5000 likes and it had more than 4000 likes in under a day
On top of the thousands of likes and shares are hundreds of comments from people commenting on how much they love what they have done.
‘You guys are the sexiest bunch of librarians working in one place that I have ever seen!! Even in a spoof shot lol [sic],’ one woman wrote on the Facebook page.
‘Note to self: Buy enough money to move to NZ and get a job at this library. Let my little librarian/PR heart live happily ever after. This is everything,’ said another.

Of course, as always not all comments were positive, with one commenting to question why someone is paying six people to be a library’s social media team.
The team was quick to clarify that the people in the photograph manage the social media for free, as well as their ‘actual jobs’.
‘We aren’t hired to do it all. We do it because we love our library and we don’t think that’s idiotic at all.’

When another called them out for being ‘pathetic’, the library team had this to say:
‘Promoting our library to a new generation? We don’t think there is much better we can do Gail. Unless you think Libraries aren’t worth promoting?’.
