AN IDEAL LIBRARIAN
“In a word, a librarian should have the learning of a Bacon, the manner of a Chesterfield, the patience of Job, the divining power of a wizard, and the temper of an angel. Besides, he must not only be born a librarian, but must continue to make himself one as long as he lives.”
(from An Ideal Librarian, The Kalends, Goucher College’s student literary magazine, October 1898)
