HEY GIRL, I'D LIKE TO TRANSPORT YOU ACROSS STATE LINES FOR IMMORAL PURPOSES IN VIOLATION OF THE MANN ACT: Having addressed everything from feminism to the peculiarities of the Park Slope Food Co-Op, it was assuredly only a matter of time until the Tumblr Law School Ryan Gosling existed. That said, I'm sure we can come up with some better suggestions.

  2. The legal one isn't as good.  Too easy.

  3. But of course: http://librarianheygirl.tumblr.com/ (There is a weird Venn diagram overlap in "People who submit to this tumbler" and "People who are seriously POed about damage to books")

  4. Although in general, it's a bit disappointing - if the submissions were made by librarians I'm afraid we're only perpetuating our own stereotypes: "Don't hurt the books", "E-books bad", "Fines!", "Shelving."  There's a whole world of information seeking behavior, metadata, authority control vs folksonomic tagging, questions of "fair use" and access issues, etc.  

    The thing about the feminist RG is that it's really getting into the deep theory as opposed to superficialities or stereotypes.

  6. Why Ryan Gosling, exactly?  Or generally?
