Description: There are eight million stories at your local public library -- and not all of them are in the books! Join humorist Roz Warren for a behind-the-scenes look at library life. What really goes on behind the circulation desk? And in the stacks? In twenty essays, you'll meet librarians fighting crime, partying with porn stars, coping with impossible patrons, locating hard-to-find books and saving the world. The most closely guarded library secrets will be revealed. You'll never look at your local public library the same way again!
