I would guess that almost all librarians are meticulous people who have not only a commitment to order, but a real personal aesthetic preference for it.
For such people to confront the page-corner-turning, doodling, disorganized masses must be a constant source of anxiety.

The article says librarians complain of boredom, not using all their talents. Two fixes for this: become a Mum; work in a little, tiny library. Trust me you’ll use talents you didn’t know you had!

sheesh, yeah! I work as the cataloger/reference librarian at a small library system that has two branches and a bookmobile. I also sit the front desk two hours a day. I can assure you, there is no time to be bored!

Being a librarian is fun and there is no time to be bored unless you dont use your creativity. Look around your library you will surely find something fun to do.
