LOL! I was just talking about card catalogs with my kids last week. I had to show them a picture of one and explain how it worked. The expression on their faces was like, “Really, Mom, tell me another bizarre story, because this one doesn’t make any sense”
Leonard & Sheldon have a card catalog in their living room on CBS’ The Big Bang Theory. That’s how most kids today will recognize it – they won’t have a name for it but they’ll know they’ve seen it somewhere.

I wonder how many kids are going to see this and not know what the card catalog is?

Well, I remember one from Ghostbusters.
Actually, I remember having to learn the Dewey Decimal System and getting tested on it. That was in elementary school, grade 4 I believe.

I haven’t seen a library card catalog in over 20 years.
