A male librarian working in a public library

I think it's still possible that if libraries don't keep moving with the times, they could be outshined by a new disruptive innovation/model


across the universe *shudder*

Patron peeing on a tree in front of our doors instead of walking 200 feet to our toilets #LibraryProblems #MisanthropicLibrarian


Coworker has a terrifyingly maniacal and forced laugh, I'm on edge just waiting for it to occur #LibraryProblems


Says I, to my 82 amazing followers


I have finished working in branches for a while now. But I'm still in the library biz so to speak. Will have to start tweeting again soon


No I won't serve you lady on phone. Who does that?


Popping my conference cherry at #alia2012


Maybe I'll get more free time when I finally loose my mind and end up in a care facility. I could take up knitting or cards. How lovely.


Lady complains she can’t fit enough items in the return chute, I’m sorry our free and convenient service can’t include a giant returns chute


Lady asks today if she can get a concession rate discount on her .50c print job. #no


Monday, back to life, back to reality...


You know you're getting older when you don't appreciate your waiters air drums whilst you're waiting to pay the bill


Is there any other profession that's as self congratulatory as librarianship. I mean you don't see doctors making YouTube lip syncing clips


Another patron with booze breath today at the reference desk, they are mostly normal looking until they singe your eyebrows off


Why do old people at the mall like ice cream and 'cup'o'chinos'?


Lady talking about how unnecessary computers are whilst I'm using one to locate a book for her in under 5 seconds


Lady asks about referencing a collected work. I tell her how I think she should do it and recommend online resources. She walks out mad???


My job is a bit up in the air at the moment. Not sure if I should just quit


Successfully answered two reference requests this morning, one easy one hard. The patron for the hard question cried upon finding the result
