Lost in the Stacks

The story goes that a reference librarian was working at a university when a student requested information about “Gee Suits.” The librarian didn’t know what this was… Was it some kind of clothing? Upon asking a few questions, it became clear that the student didn’t really know what it was either, only that it had something to do with religion.

The librarian racked his brain, and then finally came up with a solution. He asked the student to write down what he was looking for. The student wrote and handed the piece of paper over. It read, “Jesuits.”

LIBRARIANS: the books, the fame, the fortune… What more could you want? (Maybe more books.)
