Something happened in the library today that made the
newest Unshelved Strip very relevant. A patron wanted Washington Irving's "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow". The only copy we had was in the children's section. It was the full text, not an abridged version, but the patron refused to take it home. Because it was in the
children's section and he was not a child. It's amazing how people's perception of something will change depending on what label you slap on it.

Sounds like a childish reaction to me (ha ha)... some people's children!
