Book Description Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Sit down, my dear,' says the fortuneteller. 'Let's see what the future holds.' She draws her robe around the chair, addresses her crystal ball. 'You're a librarian ' she says, rubbing the ball. 'Your future You will enjoy -- oops, its changing. . . . You will go on a long -- oops, it's changing again!'Sound familiar It's just one of the many wry observations from cartoonist Benita Epstein. One could say that she sees the libraryland as a place full of offbeat characters, from interlibrary loan sharks to patrons who need references -- for their risumis, of course. Or as a technological jungle where signs read 'Beware of the DOS.' Or as a land of words, where oxymorons are served at cocktail parties. In short, she sees a land with which we are all familiar, a place called libraryland, where we can always enjoy a good chuckle and sometimes even a belly laugh. These cartoons are sure to cause both.
