satire: things they dont tell you in library school   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #160 of 283 |
this is my first attempt at library humour so be kind ok?

things they dont tell you in library school

1. once you graduate every library you enter will have someone
lounging around who recognises you and will immediately start the
rumour that you are after their job

2. inevitably you are going to become the kind of smart alec who gets
into abstract conversations with the shelver about the quirks of the
catalogue.

3. When a librarian comes up to you while you are mucking around on
the computers and tells you to shush, you are going to snigger. This
may or may not get you into difficulties regarding your unpaid fines.
So don't say I didnt warn you.

4. When an mature aged citizen asks you what you are giggling about so
inanely while looking at the screen, you will segue into a discussion
about pornography in public places without batting an eyelid. You
will also direct him to the nearest Rare Books Section of an academic
library, where, you assure him, he can have a private booth.
