Examining the lighter side of librarianship, this book presents a combination of outrageously funny cartoons, commentary, and wit. Globally known as Biblia, the Warrior Librarian, Amanda Credaro has teamed with cartoonist Peter Lewis and produced a book that expands on her award winning web site, Warrior Librarian Weekly, the product of many years of experience in librarianship. Equally applicable to all types of libraries, the work offers humorous advice, typical situations and dilemmas, and helpful examples that will be appreciated by anyone who has ever worked in a library. An additional section features a glossary of library terms, abbreviations, professional associations, and other resources.

"Examining the lighter side of librarianship, this book presents a combination of great cartoons, and intelligent, witty commentary....[o]ffers humorous advice, typical situations and dilemmas, and helpful examples that will be appreciated by anyone who has ever worked in a library....Extremely funny throughout....[a] work that brings a smile to your face when you are feeling like you are the only librarian in the world with problems or even when you are feeling just isolated. This is great Australian humour. Reward yourself and purchase this one for a great laugh--you deserve it and will feel better for it."-The Australian Library Journal

5.0 out of 5 stars
What a great book!,
By Alan (Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Biblia's Guide to Warrior Librarianship: Humor for Librarians Who Refuse to Be Classified (Paperback)
Everyone who has ever used a library should get this book - not just librarians. Even the back cover is funny. People will say "he's just a kid" (I'm 16) and "what would he know"? But I'm telling you - I KNOW what's funny, and this book IS too, too hilarious.I never know that forwards and introductions could be like the ones in this book. My librarian never told me that even title pages could be used for more than just breaking up sections. If you're looking for something really boring, you should NOT buy this book.

What a lot of fun!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Biblia's Guide to Warrior Librarianship: Humor for Librarians Who Refuse to Be Classified (Paperback)
This book won't suit everyone - you need a sense of humor, and at least a little knowledge about libraries to fully appreciate the dry wit. Love the great cartoons, too!
