An excellent completion, and an excellent writeup! Well done! And yes, it's true, librarians are tough.

Well, this wasn't so many books at once when you consider that this involved trips to multiple libraries. As for dialogue with the checkout people, I know that it's not considered appropriate to talk about patrons' books unless they start a conversation. It's also considered bad practice to make assumptions about why people want information-- sometimes it's not helpful professionally because you're not giving people the information they're actually looking for, and otherwise it's just inappropriate-- privacy's definitely a part of the professional ethics. Which is not to say that no one would call the police over this stack of books in today's climate (the point of the task, of course), just that they shouldn't. This is also why I didn't try to start any weird conversations with the folks checking my books out for me-- the task isn't about disturbing library staff, it's about the books and only the books, as I see it.

I like it. Although rot13 doesn't give fellow procrastinators much of a challenge since it takes just a second to find a site on the web to do the work for you...
