[PW] Amusing/Interesting Reference Requests

[Shari Haber]

I haven't seen one like this one I received back in the mid-1970s:  An 
elderly gentleman, who called in on the phone, said that he had a very 
interesting life and wanted me (the reference librarian) to write the 
story of his life. Although I explained that I could not do that, he 
kept repeating that his life was very interesting and that I should 
write his story. I finally told him to contact the local university 
which had an oral history program going at that time.
