These witty, insightful, and readable writings on the various
aspects of alternative librarianship, edited by two outspoken
library professionals, is a sequel to Revolting Librarians,
published in 1972. The contributors, including such as Alison
Bechdel, Sanford Berman, Utne Reader librarian Chris Dodge, Rory
Litwin, Marilyn Gell Mason, Noel Peattie, Toni Samek, and Jana
Varlejs, cover topics that range from library education and
librarianship as a profession to the more political and spiritual
aspects. The contributions include critiques of library and
information science programs, firsthand accounts of work
experiences, and original fiction, poetry and art. Ten of the
original librarians who wrote essays for Revolting Librarians back
in 1972 reflect upon what they wrote thirty years ago and the turns
that their lives and careers have taken since.
