Librarians and Angels

[Jan Bakker <bakker@NCREL.ORG>]

There's been a lot of discussion about the way the media portray librarians.
Last night, the TV show  "Touched By an Angel" opened with Monica (the
"starring" angel) saying "If I weren't an angel, I think I'd like to be a
librarian."  The portrayal of a children's librarian was quite positive.
(Well she did go a little nutsy later but it turned out she had a brain tumor.)

Just thought I'd pass along this basically positive portrayal.
