but I do notice and do judge people on their reading and media habits. So the lady who is checking out the More With Less Cookbook, Steinbeck's Grapes of Wrath and the DVD Lumumba gets props while the dude with all the wrestlemania smackdown tapes and a trashy YA book on Avril Lavigne gets none. No props for the Crazy Hitler Lady either. Lucky for them, though, I don't actually deal with the public unless it can be helped.
Incidently, this is how I first suspected one of the sex offenders. From the time he got his card he ONLY checked out 2 types of materials (and these he checked out frequently): wrestling videos and sex ed books. Put that together. :/
The only people we openly mock, however, are ones who use the free internet access to watch the Paris Hilton sex footage all the while trying to play it off, like "Oh, I was just, um, checking the weather forecast..." Otherwise, policy is that it's not our business. Freedom of inquiry, no cenosrship and all that.
Not an actual, trained librarian
