Hello!

I'm a recent Web4Lib subscriber and May 2007 MLS grad, and, if anyone is
looking for gifts for the library school graduate (or, as in my
case, happens to *be* a graduate who wants to pick herself up a present!), I
recently stumbled across Sarah Utter's designs, which are, frankly, perfect.


I really fell in love with the mind behind the designs when I saw the
description next to her "Future Librarian" (
http://www.buyolympia.com/q/Item=futurelibrarian_brown) shirt (which also
comes in kids' sizes and onesies...how cute!):

"Although librarians have been traditionally associated with a collections
of books, as seen by the etymology of the word "librarian," modern
librarians deal with information in many formats, including books,
magazines, newspapers and audio recordings in various formats."

It's not quite "Webgoddess," but it's a start! :)

Her "Reading is Sexy" shirts are great as well:

And for the guys:http://www.buyolympia.com/q/Item=readingisboy

I didn't envision my first post being a plug for t-shirts, but these shirts
are not only adorable, they're great conversation-starters...and making our
profession more visible can only be a good thing. :)
