On my several visits to your fine store, I have noticed that you carry a great deal of GLBTQI material on your shelves. Bravo, say I! Good job. I’m glad that whoever is doing your purchasing is paying attention to these important issues.
Two things, though.
1) If you wanted a single shelf on which to display all GLBTQI material, why not simply set up a GLBTQI shelf? Why have you crammed it all onto the Social Sciences shelf? I mean, I understand that some social scientists do study these issues, and I am totally for having those materials on a Social Sciences shelf. But today I saw a gay romance novel on that shelf. I suppose you could make the case for having romance novels on a social sciences shelf, but it seems a bit of a stretch to me.
2) Could you maybe have some other items on the Social Sciences shelf too? I mean, you have a big, beautiful biography of Malinowski stashed over there in the bargain book bin! That thar be social science. Or, how about some sociology and anthropology primers? Steven Pinker’s language books might do well there (instead of the Religion shelf [?]). My point is, social scientists do study things besides GLBTQI issues. I’d like to find some of those issues represented on my shelf, is all. I shouldn’t have to go to “Current Events” to find something vaguely anthropological.
Again, I applaud your commitment to providing reading material on these important issues.
Much love (except for your outrageous prices),
ME
P.S. I promise, as soon as I save up enough gold doubloons, I will come buy that Malinowski bio.
P.P.S. You need to stock more thesis paper.
P.P.P.S. Really, dude, these prices. WTF?!
