Books, Men, Nakedness Come Together in Rare Team Effort

Texas librarians, not all of whom are old ladies with monocles and cardigans, want you to know that not all Texas librarians are old ladies with monocles and cardigans. Another of their goals is to raise money for the TLA Disaster Relief Fund, which is trying to get Katrina- and Rita-affected libraries back up to speed.

Thus was born the Men of Texas Libraries Calendar: 18 months of bookish beefcake, guaranteed to gaze down benevolently from your wall, blessing next year's work with virtuous erudition and professional calm.

Buy it here, or, if you're in the DFW area, go to the launch party this weekend. And keep it down in the periodicals room.

Reception for the launch of the Texas Library Association's Men of Texas Libraries Calendar
