Breaking stereotypes

I am loving these images of librarians found on CML’s Teen Summer Reading pages:





Who wouldn’t want to hang out with these fun people? They definitely cast a different light to those "shhh-ing" stereotypes of librarians of the past.

How about really breaking the stereotype by adding in pictures of older librarians who serve teens (and everyone else)and are equally approachable and fun?

Why can't you "shhh", have a bun, and be fun/interesting/engaging at the same time?
