The story revolves around 24 year old Sylvia Blackwell who arrives in the village of East Mole in 1958 in order to start work in their run down library as the children’s librarian. Luckily, it was chosen for my book club so I had the perfect excuse! Things have changed quite dramatically in that time – the biggest change being the wealth of information that is now electronic and the fact we have to fight our corner as a valuable resource when people think they can just get everything off Google! Anyway, enough about me – as soon as I saw there was a book called The Librarian with a lady on the cover reading a book, I knew I had to read it. I went to University for 3 years and did a degree in Library and Information Studies which I chose purely on the fact that I quite liked reading and quite liked books! It worked out well for me – I have being doing the same job on and off for 25 years and I still love it to this day.
I work in a company engineering library so spend my days reading about engines, the automotive industry and everything in between. For those of you that don’t know I’m a technical librarian.
