Tara,
Of all the places I never expected to find a typo...

It should be "bears" little resemblance, not "bares".

Normally, I wouldn't say anything, but you are in my citadel of literate eloquence and that is sacrosanct.

Please.

Actually, there was no mistake made. The word "bares" could of been used in the sentence. However, it just not commonly used. The librarian made no mistake in her former sentence. Words used in certain instances have changed over time and former usages are forgotten but still no more or less correct.

Hello,

I do apologize for the error. We librarians are privy to the same mistakes as others, and while we do our very best to write clearly and correctly, occasionally we falter.

I hope I have not besmirched the sanctity of the library or all that it stands for in your eyes. I will do my best to avoid similar typos in the future.

Thank you for bringing it to our attention.
