Speed Bump: New job title

Description

In a rather welcoming looking reference area, a woman sits at a desk. The old job title plaque, reading "Librarian," is in the trash behind her. The new plaque proclaims that she is a "Search Engine."

Comments

This panel is apparently making the rounds of librarians - one of my colleagues told me about it. (Thanks, Steph! And thanks for the (non-library) Calvin cartoon. Yes, I can see the similarity... ;-)

The library has posters, plants, and an aquarium. Card catalog drawers are also visible. (I don't know whether they have anything in them.)

And.... There's actually a poster of this! You can see the cartoon and buy the poster at http://www.speedbump.com/librarian.html.
