This is (yes, librarian digression here) a private sector version of Ranganathan*'s five library laws in action
- Books are for use.
- Every reader his [or her] book.
- Every book its reader.
- Save the time of the reader [thank you, Ms Haunted Bookshop]
- The library is a growing organism [I'm sure F would agree]
Here is Man with Book.
We used the time to have a look at the Corpus Clock and the Mill Pond and call in on the knitters who were still around at the Cambridge KTog before heading back to the station.
* Yes, I'm linking to Wikipedia; where is ranganathan.org ?
Library laws...nice. I popped in today on a link from the panopticon, and I have subscribed. Can't wait to catch up on back posts, and also looking forward to future posts!
