Whitney Robertson
marked it as to-read
I chose this book because I am interested in different libraries and librarians. I would like to become more familiar with the wonderful libraries and librarians out there.

Notables:
Italo Calvino - A General in the Library
Joanne Greenberg - Gloss on a Decision of the Council of Nicaea
Lorrie Moore - Community Life
Saki - The Story of St. Vespaluus
Disappointing:
Alice Munro - Hard-Luck Stories
Francine Prose - Rubber Life
Obligatory:
Jorge Luis Borges - The Library of Babel
(For some reason, this story is cited/included in every book about libraries I have ever read.)
