For those who love lists--and not necessarily the "10 Best Places to Buy Pesto" featured in city magazines--this book should surely whet your intellectual appetite. Compiled by a British librarian, the work includes a wide variety of interesting and unusual facts (largest military library, oldest dental-school library, major libraries suffering fire or natural devastation, 14 major films that featured libraries, etc.). In addition the book contains many fascinating facts about books, periodicals, and bookstores. The author, a diligent researcher, combed through many of the major European libraries to collect all this information. Although he acknowledges his book has a disproportionate number of entries on the UK, other countries and continents are still well covered. One problem: the work would have been greatly enhanced with a list of consulted sources, which would have been especially useful in some entries for researchers pursuing more information. This work, combined with the "Librariana" section of the Whole Library Handbook 3: Current Data, Professional Advice, and Curiosa about Libraries and Library Services (2000), will certainly enlighten and entertain librarians about the enduring and remarkable history of our institutions.
