I'll do you one better: I heard of a librarian who classified it as
"fantasy", and since fantasy is for children, stuck it in the children's
section. Someone who knew better came into the library at some point and
raised a mighty objection. The librarian didn't belive her until the
knowledgeable person opened one of the books up *at random* and told her to
just read those two pages. The books were out of the children's section
immediately afterwards....
