+    (description
+     "\"catalogue\" is a tiny, zero-dependencies library that
+makes it easy to add function (or object) registries to your code.  Function
+registries are helpful when you have objects that need to be both easily
+serializable and fully customizable.  Instead of passing a function into your
+object, you pass in an identifier name, which the object can use to lookup the
+function from the registry.  This makes the object easy to serialize, because the
+name is a simple string.  If you instead saved the function, you'd have to use
+Pickle for serialization, which has many drawbacks.")
