Awful Library Books Blog
Awfullibrarybooks.wordpress.com is a collection of the worst library holdings. The items featured here are so old, obsolete, awful or just plain stupid that we are horrified that people might be actually checking these items out and depending on the information.
This blog contains actual library holdings. No specific libraries or librarians are named to protect the guilty. Check your shelves, it could be you.
The title of this book angers me greatly!!
It has always bugged me when people mention "the good old days." Not saying that you ever had, but I tend to look at where we have come from in terms of race relations, women rights, and the treatment of those with disabilities – the the good old days really weren't that good in that regard.
Here's the original post that accompanies the book: http://awfullibrarybooks.wordpress.com/2009/05/22...
As you can see, it was published in 1975. A library should no longer be carrying such an outdated book in my opinion, especially since that is no longer an acceptable way to refer to those with special needs.
