Someone who knows enough
truth about how libraries really
work, but not enough to go insane or be qualified as a
real librarian.
A portmanteau of Sham and Librarian
Symptoms:
* Holds strong, unwavering opinions about library records, that cannot typically be stated without at least 3 different expletives.
* Drinks like a fish to try to stem the pain from their considerations of the kafka-esque procedures running the library world
today.
* For some reason, a
guy called Marc is the bane of their lives, especially the one that's eight years old.
* Started doing IT support for librarians is a persistent feature as well.
"Christ, your library system is a piece of shit.
Fuck, what kind of
fucking MARC code is that?" - "But you're a computer guy, how do you know MARC?" - "Heh, I
may know computers, but I'm also a shambrarian"
