Despite popular theories, I believe people fall in love based not on good looks or fate but on knowledge. Hasn't anyone found a strange ignorance in someone beguiling. Nowadays, trendy librarians, wanting to be important, say, Knowledge is power. I know better. Knowledge is love .
People think librarians are unromantic, unimaginative.
This is not true. We are people whose dreams run in a particular way. The idea of a library full of books, the books full of knowledge, fills me with fear and love and courage and endless wonder. I knew I would be a librarian in college as a student assistant at a reference desk, watching those lovely people at work. This is a reference librarian's fantasy.
