Boxes of Books

I work in a library, therefore I must love books, right? Well... there are books and then there are books. Context really is everything.

For the record, don't have anything personal against Bosnian serials. They are just a convenient stand-in for all the troublesome, hard-to-catalog books with bad or non-existent records that regularly plague our office. (I'm not saying that I don't know people who do actually have vendettas against Bosnian serials, mind you...)

If you must know, my personal nightmare involves the delivery of twelve disintegrating boxes of Vietnamese books. I still get jumpy when I hear the mail cart approaching.
