In the first job interview I was at this spring, I was asked whether I felt like a librarian. As I had never worked in a library I thought it wrong to claim that title just yet, but I quickly added that I aspired to become one.
Now I have landed not just one, but two library jobs. I’m already a couple of weeks into a summer gig at the National Library in Oslo where I have a key card and am surrounded by ancient, mysterious manuscripts and ancient, mysterious clients who study them. In August I start as a school librarian at an upper secondary where I expect less mystery and more drama.
So this must mean that I’m now allowed to announce it out loud – I’m a Librarian and I’m proud!
