There are so many silly stereotypes of librarians out there. And most people are astonished to discover that to be a librarian, you must have a masters degree. This is one librarian that is both lively and not so dumb. Very good article! There are so many silly stereotypes of librarians out there.

Librarians just like to point out we're not bun wearing, super shushing action figures. In my ideal library, there would be a special huge soundproofed room where people could make as much racket as they liked, including bands. A library in Toronto hosts a monthly bands night, would be a great idea: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z9RSdRVDQ1A The display's been going great - in fact I need to find some other things to populate it, being so popular!

In my library school I was one a large-ish group of partiers who loosely referred to ourselves as the Librarians from Hell. Yeah, a few Bonny connections there too. And we were not quite your timid types, ya' know? Rockin’, Bon-Lovin’ Librarians unite!

I know, I know, as Susann pointed out also, I'm guilty of stereotyping librarians and their place of work. MY apologies for that. I would LOVE to see an acca dacca gig rattle the book shelves! (But how could the more bookish students continue to study with all that rockin?) Yep, I should have stuck around longer chattin' up the spunky librarian, but I figured (correctly, as it turns out!) that the library info-grapevine would spider out and reach back to me very quickly. (I should point out, I wasn't disappointed in the library or it's staff at all, just in the fact that I didn't get to see your cool display myself!) Thanks again for everything, how is your display being received by the punters? Hi Rachael. I know, I know, as Susann pointed out also, I’m guilty of stereotyping librarians and their place of work.

They aren't quiet ('shhhh') places anymore, and if AC/DC were looking for a library gig, we'd gladly host them. The nice lady at the desk (more like a spunky lass) would have been able to help more if you'd stuck around longer - she turned around and you were already gone!

At least they have something. With demand they'd probably get more, but maybe not in time for the end of the BSP. Maybe there's folks out there who'd donate Bon, or acca dacca books? They ought to google Bon - they'd have a pretty good selection of articles too. Shh, my foot! Librarians have a vile stereotype to overcome. We aren't that quiet. Trust me on that one! Yesss!
