[78-L] Serendipitous cataloguing

        Some librarians make a big deal about having patrons browse 
physical books, discs, etc, and then discovering interesting new titles 
sitting beside the title they were looking for.  They use the word 
"serendipity" over and again in their defense against digital libraries.
        Well, this was a different kind of serendipity.  When looking up 
recordings of Shelton Brooks compositions, I got this hit list.  Read the 
last title, and the condition of the record.
