What They Don't Tell You in Library School

I was a starry-eyed student at the McGill Library School in the early ’90s. I happily learned to catalogue (I aced that Dewey test, by the way), puzzled over the notion of collections development, and embraced my inner techie as I built databases and conducted timed Boolean searches on what was a fairly new internet. Not once during that period did the reality of what it really meant to work in a public setting that is a library ever set in.
