I love libraries, don't get me wrong. There is nothing like being in a building that is completely dedicated to reading and contains more books than I could ever consume. The website Awful Library Books takes a look at the older books that are still part of collections across the country and pokes fun at the crazy titles, covers and material that somehow made it into print many years ago. It's kind of amazing that some of these are in rotation, but I guess if you don't have to edit things out, why would you get rid of a book? As with anything outdated like clothes, music, and hairstyles, these books allow us to look back at a different era and laugh about how much has changed. Prepare for a good laugh...
