In case anyone else had difficulty with the broken link in Alan's posting,
it refers to the following notice in the BL's "Readers' Bulletin", summer
2001:
"The library does not have a formal dress code for readers, but we ask you
to observe a reasonable standard of dress. During the summer months, we ask
you to wear shoes and tops at all times and if you wear shorts, they should
be appropriate for work rather than for the beach or sports."

I was wondering whether I could easily turn up an article on
inappropriately dressed librarians. I am sure we have all seen a few of
these.
Instead I found this report from the Times Higher Education 24 August
2001

The only inappropriate dress I remember seeing is the young lad wearing
a heavy overcoat in the height of summer. I thought nothing more of it
but it turned out he was selling drugs at the back of the library...

just think how dull it would be if they all appeared in sober suits. Let
em have their time as young people who want to experiment, because time
is short and they may grow up to be librarians and take a dim view of
street fashion and youthful abandoness!

Yes, I think we should be pleased enough to see the students using the
library and not outside sunning themselves!

The only thing offensive is this attitude to the public that still
seems to prevail in certain institutions.
Personally I look forward to the warmer weather in Tottenham and the
chance to see inappropriately dressed students studying and using our
facilities.
