libraries are brothels for the mind
The Guardian has a “how to” section about how to use a library. Required reading for bibliophiles or just the book-curious.
In most libraries, there is a section of large-print books. The print is so large, in fact, that most of the text has to be removed. For example, in 100 Years Of Solitude, you’ll be lucky to get 40 Years Of Moderate Loneliness.

Clark Atlanta University trustees voted this week to close the library school, among other departments, protests nonwithstanding. Damn damn damn. [thanks mac]
sexy librarian can’t get a break
The NYPost has a photo of the librarian who is “too sexy” to get promoted at Harvard. Incidentally, the closing of Clark’s library school will be another blow against furthering the causes of black librarians. [thank bill]
