33 reasons for librarians

I am a huge fan of librarians -- especially news librarians who have made my job easier, even enjoyable, more than a few times over the years. (And it doesn't hurt to be married to a wonderful lady who also is a library assistant.)

I fear, despite our protestations that they are more important than ever in the digital age, that they will continue to be cut from newsroom budgets.

While not dealing directly with news librarians, this 33 reasons why libraries and librarians are still extrmely important is good fodder for the debate.
