Looking for Marian

A colleague brought this to my attention. A vocational video on the librarian profession from 1947:










It's actually pretty good how it covers so many aspects of the profession that are still relevant today. The technology obviously has changed, but the basics seem to be more or less the same.

It's also generated some interesting discussion.
