Cartoons, Decorating with

Librarians should decorate their office doors (or cubicle walls) with cartoons strips. Be sure to label each cartoon with a proper APA citation, copyright notice, and a bibliography for further reading.

Damn straight.

Or just post the entire piece of 8 1/2 by 11 paper on which you printed the lone comic strip, which usually includes an extremely long URL.

Should the cartoons all be library- or book-related?

Or is it acceptable to have non-library- or book-related cartoons posted?

I use this one... Garfield Minus Garfield.

Guilty as charged (although I always forget the citation...)

And don't forget, another good location is on the walls of the staff washroom.

Also guilty. I have a "Get Fuzzy" up on my door in which Bucky says he hates technology because his book crashed. Books + cat + anti-technology reference: where's my librarian bingo prize?

Do you know when that "Get Fuzzy" cartoon was published? I MUST get my own copy of that one!

I just sat at the library reference desk and giggled out loud looking at Garfield Minus Garfield. Thanks to Anon for posting that link in the comment!

I work in a government library and the Dilbert cartoon is SO relevant here!

Crazy librarian cat lady:

Sorry, I have no citation. It's in one of the published collections, though -- maybe The Dog Is Not a Toy. They're all sitting on the couch, and the first panel is Bucky: "I hate this. I hate all technology." Rob: "That's a book, Bucky, it's not exactly 'high tech.'"
