Librarians 'should be sexier'
16.11.06
A shake-up of Britain's libraries has been called for by a senior spin-doctor - including a ban on the word "librarian".
The Westminster council official said libraries should also spice up their reputation by using "good-looking" staff for press and marketing work and by stressing their range of "racy" titles.
The proposals were met with disgust by librarians, who dismissed the idea that they are not glamorous or exciting.
"Librarians come in all shapes and sizes - and that includes the very photogenic," said one library chief, adding that some of his colleagues are "incredibly exciting".

Yeah. If I ever got a job at a library, I would be fired for ogling like two seconds later. -

Mon, November 20, 2006 - 1:30 PMA sure fire way to adopt a stalker is to look sexy when you work in a library. I already have about six unappealing patrons with thinly disguised crushes (or a librarian fetish) and while I dress nicely at work I definitely avoid the clingy dresses and plunging necklines! -
