Inclusive Titles

Prompts = Library, Rigid, Shame

Janette Washington grew up in a large house which featured an enormous private library, where she’d spend her free time organizing them.

She decided to become a librarian but vowed never to use the Dewey Decimal System; a single rigid method of shelving books, especially one designed by a white male, wasn’t right for her. She organized private collections using her own unique methods.

For instance, she felt book titles should be inclusive. “All Creatures Great And Small” — a wonderful title! However, “Of Mice And Men” wasn’t; she always hid that book on a high shelf.

It’s a shame she never read them.
