What does the #^ operator mean in Clojure?

What does #^ mean in Clojure? My copy of The Joy of Clojure doesn't mention this operator anywhere (it's not in the index or anywhere in the text that I've looked). I can't really search for it with Google, because the operator is made up of special characters that the search box ignores.
