Pull quote: “Librarians don’t require faculty status or even publication to do the occasional research, though. All it requires is a library and some curiosity about a subject outside your daily job. Librarians who try to use their own library for research and are frustrated anywhere along the way have moved out of their comfort zone and into sympathy with faculty and students. Better yet, try to use a different library, where you don’t have your own desk and computer and private space, or where the hours might be so short or the rules so restrictive that your time gets wasted waiting for material when you’d rather be reading it. Reading is the important thing. Everything else is an obstacle.” - Stephen le Francoeur
