College Student: "I need Mengele & the Nazi Doctors".
Me (looking up title on OPAC): "I'm sorry that title isn't coming up."
College Student: "No, it's two different books".
Me (still looking up titles): "We have two biographies with the title Mengele; which author are you looking for?"
CS: "Oh, it doesn't matter. The instructor just said we should all read those two books".
(Nothing like light reading for entertainment, but we go back to the stacks to the 92's)
Me (handing books to her): "Here they are".
CS: "Oh--they're really big" (and no pictures) "But the print's not too small. I'll take this one".
And off she goes with a smile on her face. Nothing like the prospect of reading about Nazi medical experimentation to put a spring in one's step.
