My thesis that librarians are wonderful people was confirmed again today. I had called a meeting and only one other person turned up. We had a great chat and I found out that she had been a librarian and had an MA (Hons) in History. I shared with her about a librarian friend of mine who became a programmer and who worked with me on a number of international projects. He is the best programmer that I have ever worked with, and he told me that it was his library training that gave him his edge.
My first love in life was a librarian. I was 5 and she was probably in her 30's but she fostered my love of books.
It is unusual and wonderful to talk to intelligent and literate people. I am yet to find an illiterate librarian :)
So 3 cheers for Librarians.
