Why Spell Check is your Friend4 comments

From the Livejournal library_mofo group ("The Society for Librarians* Who Say "Motherfucker"), via Viviane, a moment in the life of a reference librarian:
A female undergrad walks up to the desk for help.
"Hi, I'm looking for anal tourism research." She says.
I could not have heard her correctly.
"Um, what?" I reply.
"I'm looking for anal tourism research."
Like Thailand and Vegas? "I think there is a typo." I counter.
"No, my professor was very specific about anal."
I don't ask if there was an oral exam. "We can take a look, but I don't think that's right."
"Please? Anal research is important, I need it bad."
I start searching in the catalogue, typing in ‘annal’ to end this.
"It's anal, A-N-A-L. Anal was at the top of the list of the things he wanted."
I bet it was. "We don't have it under that listing."
"Well, how can I get Anal Tourism Research?"
Some Barry White, some K-Y, some minor discomfort.
"How about we try some variant spellings?"
"But I want anal."
"Please trust me on this." I don't want my boss to walk over while she shouts "I want anal!" again.
"Here we go, Annals of Tourism Research."
"But, anal..."
"Is something very different."
I could see the dawning in her eyes as she made the connection.
"I, anal, oh my god."
"Is there anything else I can help you with?"

Even when coeds are begging for me to give them anal, I'm still a professional.

Ahhhh....my favorite group, as I am in the profession. This site tells it like it really is...hard to believe these things take place in libraries.

Thanks - this was originally recorded by LibraryNinja ([link] I don't know if you read that blog, but it is a hoot.

Ha, I didn't actually look at it before. You're right, that is a hoot!
