Description:

Did you know that the first question ever asked of a reference librarian was "Where's the bathroom?" Or that the very first reference book was the Egyptian Farmer's Almanac? Do you know how reference librarians rid themselves of such pests as the Jerkus disgustis, Pervertus horribilis or the Studentus moronis? If you answered no to any of the above, then The Truth About Reference Librarians may so far have eluded you.Will Manley and Richard Lee are at it again. This time it's a reverent if probing tour of the not so pretty world of reference librarians, yielding such invaluable results as information on the ten stages in life of a reference librarian (1. I want to help humanity; 2. I want to help a few worthy people; 3. At least I'm getting paid for this madness...), instructions of the care and feeding of reference librarians, and a list of some of the oddest actual questions ever put to reference librarians.
