About that stereotype...

To be honest, if I saw her I would think, "I bet she's a librarian." (The glasses, the hair, the clothes...) There are new stereotypes, and to paraphrase a common utterance, there are reasons why they are stereotypes. The new library look (for younger female librarians at least) was very apparent at ALA.
