Awful Library Books

Posted by Julie Marcoux

Alright, I think it's time for some fun! If you agree and want to look at a fun yet relevant website, you could try visiting : http://awfullibrarybooks.wordpress.com/

As far as I understand, it's a blog by a few acquisitions librarians that find books that no longer really belong in their library collection, explain why they are no longer appropriate and share a few pictures. And some of these books are truly horrible.

For example, here's a book on becoming a library technician and another book on being Canadian.

    I used to follow Awful Library Books. It's a lot of fun. Some of those books are ridiculous. That Canadian one is hilarious - "Young giant of the north". heh.

    My favourite funny library blog is The librarian's Guide to Etiquette. Here's the link for anyone who wants to check it out: http://libetiquette.blogspot.com/
