By an amazing coincidence, I came to a similar conclusion last 
week with reference to the library at the high school where I 
work.  Initially I'm going to boost for _Digital Knight_, because 
it most closely resembles the observed preferences of our pupils. 
  The librarian is a happily F&SF-friendly sort of cove, and can 
very possibly be persuaded to take a punt on it.

The immediate occasion, by the way, is the imminent launch of one 
of my side-projects -- a large and colourful series of 
wall-posters providing a phylum-by-phylum guide to the animal 
kingdom.  Cultural sidebars abound, and unless you object I 
propose to sneak a plug for your works into the Cubozoan section...
