On Monday the Lee County Librarians dressed up as Library 1.0 types. The patrons loved it and so did we. The entire day was filled with laughter.
Meet Maria, the librarian, one of my friends:
"Books and reading have been the centre of my life since my childhood. I was a hardcore bookworm till age 18. A good book for me is more than just a good story, it's safety, recreation, a handhold. Whenever I'm in an end-of-the-world mood, I grab a book. In those times I usually read the lively and vital books of István Fekete or Terry Prachett's Discworld.
I was going to be a biology teacher, but "accidentally" I ended up being a librarian. I worked in the Szabó Ervin Library (the biggest Hungarian library), in the library of a military college, in a university library, and after a detour now I'm the librarian of a vocational secondary school. The detour was my other big love: the world of plants and naturopathy. Both paths interlock and complement each other. When I teach fitotherapy, my students get a list of referenced books. And we often talk about herbs, nature, environment, sustainable development in the school library. For example Dune, the novel by Frank Herbert shows suggestively the importance of water, our life-giving treasure.
Yet, if I would to keep only one book, that would be Távoli tűz (Distant Fire) by Péter Zsoldos. And a further recommendation for today: I'll Give You the Sun by Jandy Nelson."

One of the librarians I work with outlined all the different jobs she does, so show to her board of trustees. It's a little hard to read but the color blocks are all different sections like collection development, reference, etc.

Being a librarian, she was a bright young woman and a well read individual. VERY well read. And working in the book trade allowed her access to books on many topics, including those titles which touched upon one of her obscure hobbies. Now she just needed to review the chapter from the latest book in her collection — the chapter on hiding bodies.
Best viewed large.
