Recommendation: Scimus quae legis et non dicimus

Some four years and two months ago, the institution or establishment, charged with the care of a collection of books, and the duty of rendering the books accessible to those who require to use them (thank you, Mr. Murray) was compelled by events to require my colleagues and I to memorize the phrase:

As a matter of Library policy all requests for patron information must be directed to the Library’s Director or his/her designees who will confer with the Office of General Counsel.

for regurgitation under the appropriate circumstances. Not long thereafter I heard my chosen profession, only half-jokingly, denounced from a local pulpit as part of a vast left-wing conspiracy to prevent religious knowledge from being treated with the same intellectual seriousness as other forms thereof. (I'll tell you, though, over the past month, as I struggled to provide proper cataloging -- and therefore proper public access -- to obscure seventeenth-century Anglican controversial tract after obscure seventeenth-century Anglican controversial tract, there were times when I knew myself ripe for recruitment by such a conspiracy, did it exist. In the meantime, I'd love to have the incumbent of said pulpit drop by and help me out, after I took him upstairs and showed him the half-a-block of floor space devoted to Library of Congress call numbers BL1 through BX9999, not to mention all the related stuff in D and H and P.) Things like this add up after a while, which is why I need me one of these, to go along with my "Don't make me use my Librarian Voice" T-shirt. I'm just sayin' ... or not sayin', as the case may be.
