I've been "yanged" twice (at two different libraries). Both times he registered for the programs but didn't actually participate, and then requested we send him prizes. He said it was part of a group "bet" to see who could get the most summer reading prizes sent to them. He also registered for Youth programs despite being an adult, which didn't sit well with anyone. Why would we take away a prize, purchased with a limited budget, from our young readers for your personal bet to get free stuff? We responded that it was only for residents (at one library), and only for those who could pick up in-person (at the other).
