The first part of this posting originally appeared on Library Out Loud on Tuesday 13 August. The posting was substantially updated this morning but was then taken off the site – fortunately we are now able to reinstate it. Some minor changes have been made to the penultimate paragraph.

The address of the posting has changed so links to the earlier version will no longer work.
