[PW] Difficult/Amusing/Memorable reference questions

[Andersen, Patricia M. (SDSM&T)]

#2 below - seems to be a common problem.  I've gotten a similar request
for undiscovered mines in the Black Hills, also for undiscovered caves
in the same area. . .

1.  When I was A-V librarian at a university library, I had requests for
"The Hide and Surprise Symphony." (That would be Haydn's "Surprise
Symphony")

2.  And our map librarian once told me that a librarian at the Colorado
School of Mines had a request for a map of "all the undiscovered uranium
deposits in Colorado."
