A few years ago, I published an article in a librarianship journal, about librarians teaching, and the question of teaching music students about paratext in early national song collections.
Let me state here and now, my approach to article titles has changed, and I would never again try to be ‘clever’ or controversial in this regard. A perfectly acceptable article was made to look flippant, or even worse, by my woeful enjoyment of puns and double-entendres.
Nonetheless, because I’d like to share the article, I’ll endure the embarrassment of sharing the title with you. This is a pre-publication version, which I’ll also upload to our institutional repository in the near future:-
