HELP!
I've just been made Apocalypse Librarian!

So, they've finally gone and done it.

Who is going to fix this mess?

A Librarian

The Apocalypse Librarian

examines examples of librarians in dystopian media to find correlations with modern-day librarians and draw an informative contrast between the two. This exercise hopes to shed some predictive illumination on issues that might stress current library ethics and collection development methodologies, and it's also fun.

 

Well, maybe not that kind of fun.

If you are a fan of dystopias, you already get that part.

 

As we move through this exploration, it will become clear that both the benefits of libraries, and the responsibilities of librarians change as the social contract and infrastructure that supports them changes.
