Some Things Your Local Librarians Would Like You To Know
It is not a stupid question. Even if it is a stupid question, we have been thoroughly trained to answer your question without judgement or second-guessing. Besides, weâre mostly just glad youâre not asking us about the noise the printer is making again.
There are probably (at least) two desks in the library. One is where you check out books and is mostly staffed by people wearing nametags that say âCirculation Clerk.â These people can answer your questions about damaged or missing books, fines, and how many forms of identification weâll need if you want to get a library card but your mailing address is in Taiwan. The other one is closer to the books and computers and is mostly staffed by people wearing nametags that say âLibrarian.â These people can answer your questions about spider extermination, how to rent property to the United States Postal Service, and the number of tropical island nations in which you could theoretically establish the first United States Embassy. We would love to answer these questions for you. It would be a nice change from the printer.
We probably own a 3D printer by now. 3D printers, are cool, right? Please, please come use our 3D printer, itâs so lonely.
We spent a lot of money to hire this woodworker to come and teach a class at the library which you can attend for free. You will probably be the only person between the ages of ten and fifty in attendance, but your presence will fill the librarian with an unnameable joy. They will float back to their manager in a daze. âA young person came to my program,â they will say. You will have made their entire job worthwhile.
Every time you ask us for a book, movie, or music recommendation, a baby librarian gets their first cardigan.
Somewhere in the library, there is a form. If you fill out this form with your name and library card number and the details of the thing you are looking for, we will find you the thing. Sometimes the answer is âthe thing is in Great Britain and they will not send it to us,â but more often the thing will just appear on hold for you, and one day you will pick up a copy of that out-of-print book you never thought you would read and maybe you will say, âWow, the library is amazing,â and the librarianâs heart will glow.Â
Please bring back book #2. The rest of its series misses it very much.
Five dollars is not a large library fine. Believe me, before I started working in libraries, I too wondered how someone could sleep at night, knowing they owed money to the library. When we laugh as you sheepishly apologize for your $2.50 in overdue fees, we are not mocking you, we are thinking of the ten people we sent to debt collection already today.
We really donât care why youâre checking out Fifty Shades of Grey. Maybe you have a specifically-themed ironic bachelorette party to plan. Maybe youâre working on a thesis paper about mainstream mediaâs depiction of female sexuality. Maybe you just got curious. We will give you the benefit of the doubt.Â
Whatever youâre smoking in the family restroom, please stop.
Somewhere on the libraryâs website, buried under âLinksâ or âResearchâ or âOn-line Resources,â is a page that a librarian spent a monthâs worth of work on. It contains many links to websites you thought everyone knew about, and one to a page that you could never have imagined existed that perfectly solves a problem you never expected to be resolved.Â
Imagine the kind of person who would think to themselves, âLibrary school sounds like a thing I should do.â For the most part, you are imagining the kind of person who is now a librarian. We want very much to help you, but weâre not entirely sure how to do that unless you ask. You are not bothering us. Please, come and say hi.

oh my god. so this guy, Vermin Love Supreme (obvs fake name, has not disclosed real name), has officially declared his intention to run for president in 2016. Â not only does he wear a boot as a hat and carry a hilariously large toothbrush, but he states that if is elected, will make it a LAW for everyone to brush their teeth. Supreme has run in every election since the year 2000, and in 2012, ran with a platform of âzombie apocalypse awarnessâ, time travel research, and a pony for every american.
Ok but they let Deez Nuts run. Thereâs no way they can deny this guy anymore.

The spread of the black death.
Poland, tell us your secret.
Poland is the old new Madagascar.Â
If I remember correctly, Polandâs secret is that the jews where being blamed all over europe (as usual) as scapegoats for the black plague. Poland was the only place that accepted Jewish refugees, so pretty much all of them moved there.Â
Now, one of the major causes of getting the plague was poor hygiene. This proved very effective for the plague because everyone threw their poop into the streets because there were no sewers, and literally no one bathed because it was against their religion. Unless they were jewish, who actually bathed relatively often. When all the jews moved to Poland, they brought bathing with them, and so the plague had little effect there.
Milan survived by quarantining its city and burning down the house of anyone showing early symptoms, with the entire family inside it.Â
I reblogged this tons of times, but the Milan info is new.
Damn Italy, you scary.
Poland: âHey, feeling a bit down? Have a quick wash! There, you see? All betterâ
Milan: âAw, feeling a bit sick are we? BURN MOTHERFUCKER, BURN!!!!!â
Also, this might have something to do with it: from what I understand, O blood type is uncommonly⊠common in Poland. Something to do with large families in small villages and a LOT of intermarriage. The black plague was caused by a bacterium that produced, in its waste in the human body, wastes that very closely mimic the âBâ marker sugars on red blood cells that keep the body from attacking its own immune system. Anyone who has a B blood type had an immune system that was naturally desensitized to the presence of the bacterium, and therefore was more prone to developing the disease. Anyone who had an O type was doubly lucky because the O blood type means the total absence of ANY markers, A or B, meaning that their bodysâ immune system would react quickly and violently against the invaders, while someone with an A may show symptoms and recover more slowly, while someone with B would have just died. Because O is a recessive blood type, it shows in higher numbers when more people who carry the recessive genes marry other people who also carry the recessive gene. Poland, which has a nearly 700 year history of being conquered by or partnering with every other nation in the surrounding area, was primarily an agricultural country, focused around smaller, farming communities where people were legally tied to, and required to work, âtheirâ land, and so historically never âspreadâ their genes across a large area. The economy was, and had been, unstable for a very long period of time leading up to the plague, the government had been ineffective and had very little reach in comparison to the armies of the other countries around for a very very long time, and so its people largely remained in small communities where multiple generations of cross-familial inbreeding could have allowed for this more recessive gene to show up more frequently. Thus, there could be a higher percentage of O blood types in any region of the country, guaranteeing less spread of the illness and moving slower when it did manage to travel. Combine this with the fact that there were very few large, urban centers where the disease would thrive, and with the above facts, and youâve got a lovely recipe for avoiding the plague.
Interestingly enough, as a result from the plague, the entirety of Europe now has a higher percentage of people with O blood type than any other region of the world.Â
WHY IS THIS ALL SO COOL
When Tumblr teaches you more about the plague than 12 years of school ever did.
Just to throw a nod in, as a medieval historian, this is all credible, and is the leading theory as to the plagues effectiveness at this point. So. Enjoy your new knowledge!
Honestly, I hadnât learned about the Plague until year 6.
This is so important because ânudeâ â white.
Please reblog and help spread the word!
