Quiet Please: Dispatches from a Public Librarian by Scott Douglas

Picked this one up from the home library.  He's about my age and a librarian out in Anaheim near Disney.  I'm about 4 chapters in and it's a good read.  What I really love are the honest portrayals of the library staff at his branch.  Plus he peppers his book with lots of library facts like how Carnegie didn't let the libraries he funded put his portrait up.  He went to San Jo for library school and his descriptions of some of the profs are awesome.  One prof would give you an A for your paper if you cited his works.  That TOTALLY sounds like library school!  Sh-sh-sh-shady.  Everyone knows that a big handful of the instructors don't even bother reading what you turn in.
