A librarian is a person who is trained to help you find whatever information you might be looking for. Many people have an outdated stereotype of a librarian as an unmarried middle-aged woman who only cares about keeping kids away from her dusty old books. The truth, however, is that librarians come in all shapes, sizes, genders and ages; more important, librarians today are trained in Web design, online research (believe it or not, there's far more out there besides Google and Wikipedia), networking, and the latest Web 2.0 technologies. Books are still a huge part of the job, but librarians these days know far more about technology than most people, and are taught exactly how to use it to help you find what you need.
"The teacher loved my essay about World War I, but I would never have found all that stuff about it if I hadn't asked the librarian for help."

well-minded angels with little street-sense or business-savvy, love to help and occasionally are reminded why, often experience burn-out due to low pay, bureaucratic management, and the discovery that the homeless and elderly are more familiar with libraries then your son or daughter, aspire to make a difference in a constantly changing world, are some of the most interesting individuals you will ever meet, are more excited about technology then you think.
The librarian smiled politely and said to the crazy patron, "I'm sorry Sir, but I can't help you print your email from hyperspace."

Technically, the term "librarian" refers to an individual who has obtained a Master's Degree in Library Science or Information Science, but is increasingly used to refer to any of a number of professionals and para-professionals employed in a library. The main function of a librarian is to connect individuals (patrons or customers) with information and entertainment, whether found in print, audio, video, or other (i.e. online) formats.

A chick who seems really sweet and nice and shy when out. But, once you get her alone turns into a raging sexaul freak.
