Libraries for Dummies
August 24th, 2005If you are ever in the mood for a good laugh that fits into the context of your job, go over to Libraries for Dummies. From the first post:
“I’ve worked in a library for over thirteen years. When I say that I’ve pretty much seen it all, it’s not much of an exaggeration. From extraordinary acts of kindness and brilliance, to stunning feats of stupidity and cruelty, there isn’t much that would surprise me anymore. This blog is devoted to documenting some of the more memorable encounters I’ve had with patrons, because we, the staff, have always said we should write a book. Staff members, particularly bad managers, will not be immune to having their boneheaded acts and words documented herein. For anyone who has ever worked with the public, I know your pain.”
