You are dramatically underestimating the responsibilities and skill set of a librarian.

I don't doubt that. Handling large groups of kids, especially in the summer when they've got nowhere else to go, all while keeping a vital resource to the community alive.

Admittedly that was a shitty way to paint librarians, so sorry about that.

That being said, a bad cop can do a lot more damage to a community than a bad librarian.
