When you picture a librarian, what do you imagine? An old white woman with glasses and a prudish disposition? That is the image that many people conjure up when asked to picture a librarian; with 82 per cent of the professional force being female and the average age of a librarian at 45, coupled with popular stereotypical images, it is difficult to dispute the perceptions. But there is more to librarians than meets the eye. This book will explore the origin of the image and popular media images of the librarian, in addition to the effects of the stereotype, and the challenges to the perception of librarians today. Provides contemporary examples from popular culture Chapters are supported by quotes, images and personal reflections Presents a study which offers authenticity

Throughout history, many doctors have worked outside the occupation for which they were originally trained. Not Your Ordinary Doctor reveals sixty such medical truants who found fame in fields other than medicine. Meet Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's inspiration for Sherlock Holmes; cringe as Stalin tortures each of his eight doctors; follow John Keats, who abandons medicine to pursue his literary career. Within these pages are doctors who attended rulers such as Elizabeth I, Napoleon and Alexander the Great; artists, musicians and writers such as Somerset Maugham and Anton Chekhov; sporting heroes and adventurers including W.G. Grace and Che Guevara; and on a darker note, mass murderers like Hastings Banda and Buck Ruxton. Not Your Ordinary Doctor is a titillating collection filled with historical curiosities, fascinating whimsy and fresh speculation. These stories are by turns heroic and absurd, dazzling and ghoulish, inspired and tragic and, in the hands of master storyteller Jim Leavesley, never dull.

Librarians & Stereotypes: So, Now What? examines librarianshipthrough communication, gender, psychology, anthropology, and culturalstudies theories to begin to get to the root of why certain librarianstereotypes exist today and whether or not it's possible to change someof these stereotypes. It also looks at what stereotypes librarians thinkexist about the field today, how librarians present themselves andwhether or not this is changing (and consequently helping or hurting,the profession), and what public perceptions exist about librarianship asopposed to just what the media tells us about librarianship. An overviewof stereotypes presented in the literature is provided, however the pointof this book is to go beyond simply rehashing what stereotypes are thereand to look at how we can use knowledge of the current stereotypes andknowledge from other disciplines to change some of these stereotypes.The book also looks at the possible impossibility of changing certainstereotypes, and possible repercussions our actions, or lack thereof, withregard to stereotypes may have on the future of the profession. Finally,tips are offered to help librarians begin to combat stereotypes.

Elijah thought that he would have just another typical summer in White Orchids Cove, but it turned out to be anything but typical at all. He thought his summer would be filled with fun late nights playing all the latest games on his best friend Matthew's Nintendo Switch and Fortnite online with buddies from school, but that wasn't the case. While taking the long way home on the first day of summer, Elijah came across an abandoned library that had been closed for over ten years. There was a big sign on the large red front doors saying "Stay Out," but something caught Elijah's attention through the window. Curiosity got the best of him, and he went inside to uncover the town's biggest and most magical secret. He couldn't believe the things that he saw and the things he was able to do. He knew that no one would believe him...or would they?
