My boss, the head librarian, is always put together. She wears the latest in styles, her hair is always right, she’s just with it. The other day we were at a meeting and she had her latest black-framed glasses on. Her reasoning – to make herself look like a librarian. She was sitting by the local elementary principal and asked if her glasses made her look like a stereotypical librarian. The principal told us that her idea of a librarian was the county librarian when she was a kid. “I would go in the library and the librarian would have her hair pulled back in a bun with a hairnet covering her hair. She was short and rounded and had wire-frame glasses. She wore sensible shoes and a shirtwaister dress. She smelled like a basement library.”
I guess my boss needs to work harder on the look. She isn’t there yet!
