A Day with a Librarian

by Derek Miller

Overview

Experts in the field of information science, librarians do much more than manage the checking out of books. This guidebook explores how librarians create welcoming, inclusive hubs in our communities and draw on their extensive training to help patrons solve problems, answer questions, and enjoy the world of books and reading. This book features descriptions of the tech tools that librarians use and new technologies available to community members in many libraries, including 3D printers and exciting software.

Editorial Reviews

K-Gr 2—The working lives of doctors, farmers, firefighters, librarians, police officers, and teachers are introduced in this early literacy series. Each book provides information about variations within each profession, challenges faced by firefighters and police officers, and the essential work of farmers, librarians, and teachers. The text features brief, simple statements. Photos appear on each page and are separated by short chapter headings that help to organize content. Men and women from diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds are depicted, but there is room for improvement. VERDICT This serviceable series does a decent job depicting diversity, but it could still do better.
