Thread Name: BS: Librarians!' Fess Up!!
Subject: RE: BS: Librarians!' Fess Up!!
I've been a technical services librarian in a college for 17 years. I started as a serials cataloger. Now I supervise acquisitions & serials functions. MARC my words, we live & die by what Elsie does.

When we still filed catalog cards I was forever seeing titles that sounded really intersting. I'd copy it & put it in my 'to read' file. I never have had time to take any of the slips out of the box, though. A year ago I finally cleared my from the libray shelf of all the books I've had checked out for years but never gotten around to reading.

PageOfCups, the only people who go crazy faster than serials catalogers are law catalogers. You have my sympathy!
