+    (description
+     "PickleShare is a small ‘shelve’-like datastore with concurrency support.
+Like shelve, a PickleShareDB object acts like a normal dictionary.  Unlike
+shelve, many processes can access the database simultaneously.  Changing a
+value in database is immediately visible to other processes accessing the same
+database.  Concurrency is possible because the values are stored in separate
+files.  Hence the “database” is a directory where all files are governed by
+PickleShare.")
