The reference desk has been quiet lately so I've started to get whiny about how little entertainment I have. I had to give myself a reality check by reading this article on the worst things librarians have been accused of by patrons: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/roz-warren/bad-librarian_b_8721990.html
