So as a librarian, I'm always interested in sources. The author of this post is Heather O. Docks. Who is that? I just looked at Heterodoxy in the Stacks' profile, and although I saw four or five names, I didn't see Heather O. Docks' name. Is Heather a librarian? If so, where? Or is Heather O. Docks someone's nom de plume?

It's one thing to say that what's been going on in our profession is "Orwellian," but to see it put this way is quite another....
I actually LOLed in my office reading this. If we can't laugh about our profession's authoritarian turn, we'll cry. Thanks for this apt satire.
