What is a librarian? A person who sits at a little desk, talking in a very low voice, taking books from people who bring them back, making them pay if they have them too long, and stamping the books that are taken out? Certainly not! That is the work of the most junior employee in the library. To become a qualified librarian, you first have to work in a library school, usually for two years. If you pass your exams successfully, you may apply for a senior post in a public library. Many librarians are university graduates, and they only have to spend one year training instead of two. Every English town (and many large villages too) has a public library. The head librarian has the important task of deciding in which way to spend the money provided by the local government. He must know the community he lives in, and which books the people there want and need most. A public library in an agricultural area, for example, would not have very much demand for a book on the problem of air pollution in large cities. However, people in the area may be studying any subject under the sun, and these students quite often depend on the services of their public library. Librarians are usually asked to advise on the design of new library buildings; so modern libraries are far friendlier to readers than those built in the last century. As libraries are open such long hours, a librarian's working timetable may be very different from that of his friends. On some evenings he has to work. But, having such an important position in the cultural life of where he lives, he can never complain that his job is boring or unimportant.【缺少答案,请补充】
