June 16, 2002 Note: The opinions expressed herein are soley those of the author. Any resemblance to real librarians (living or dead, or somewhere in between) is probably a coincidence, but maybe not.

Graphics on this site were created by Peter Lewis, unless otherwise stated. These graphics were created exclusively for Warrior Librarian Weekly, and may not be copied without consent, which will only be granted after an obscenely large amount of money has changed hands ... which really isn't likely to happen, is it? |
