We all know that search engines can be weird, but here's what you get from my 
local library's catalog when, having heard that Howard Jacobson won the Booker 
prize, you decide to seek out his campus novel, "Coming from Behind":

Brett Favre
Going Home: 75 songs for funerals
Heartland (videorecording)
The Wisdom of Menopause
The English Reader
The Bronze Screen (videorecording)
Sounds of Horror (volume two, sound recording)
101 Games the Keep Kids Coming
"A Long Time Coming": the Inspiring, Combative 2008 Campaign and Historic 
Election of Barack Obama
The Story of Jesus

Comments on the back of a one hundred dollar bill, please.  Why is 
"videorecording" one word, but "sound recording" two?  Is this sound?
