I worked as a librarian for a few years and when I saw this it rather tickled my fancy.
The ad might not be real but the library & librarians are. This was done in 1987 so admittedly by the time I was working in a library more had been computerized but still...
My biggest problem with this job was the shelving - two reasons. It was pretty boring putting books back on shelves & making sure things hadn't got moved around. The other reason was temptation, it was a real effort to put books away when all I wanted to do was investigate. Some days it took me a lot longer to put those books away than it should have :)
