Libraries certainly love our jargon and acronyms (although the one I used for my titles is a text message acronym). But why stop at six letter acronyms? We can do better!
Tune in to the Wheel of Confusion to view the episode on "the longest ALA acronym". (Link takes you to a different web page.) A very cute look at a very bad practice.

I was actually at ALA and saw the Wheel of Confusion. What a brilliant idea. Everyone was having trouble with it. We had some luck, though. When it was our turn it landed on REFORMA - one of the few that I actually knew.
