Law
As in, "Oh, law."
This has been a rough week. Tuesday that part of OCLC that's been down came back up and I suddenly had 19 requests from other libraries for various things. I haven't and won't be able to get to those before they expire because a couple of the faculty here have suddenly, with the start of the semester two weeks away, decided they want to start these serious research projects and are asking the library to get them all sorts of crazy junk. The official language used to describe this is to say, "Legal scholarship has become so inter-disciplinary" which is supposed to excuse a law professor who wants a nineteenth-century book on holy water.
