Smith, a librarian and collector and writer of library humor, presents a history of American library humor (as well as references to a few pieces by English-language humorists from Canada, Australia, and England) from the mid-nineteenth century to the end of the twentieth century that focuses on humor about libraries and librarians (rather than books, reading, and the Internet). She documents humor by type: blunder humor, library superheroes and stereotypes, library staff, shushing, parodies, technology, humor in Mad magazine and the New Yorker, fear of libraries and librarians, sex, subversive humor, and major humorists Edmund Lester Pearson, Norman D. Stevens, and Will Manley. Annotation ©2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
