Genevieve Cogman
“We also wish to make it absolutely clear that Librarians should not attempt to use the Library to transport dinosaur eggs. And if they do disregard this rule, under no circumstances should they draw official in-world attention while doing so. In fact, we wish to remind all Librarians that they are here to collect books, not dinosaurs. Those Librarians who have problems distinguishing between the two should take a refresher course in Library basics.”
Genevieve Cogman, The Burning Page

Brandon Sanderson
“More twisted than a librarian’s love life (trust me, they’re a strange bunch),”
Brandon Sanderson, Tress of the Emerald Sea

Alechia Dow
“Until I became a librarian, I didn't know I was a rebel.”
Alechia Dow, The Sound of Stars

Dorothy L. Sayers
“Facts are like cows. If you look them in the face long enough, they generally run away.”
Dorothy L. Sayers

Terry Pratchett
“Not long ago I was invited to a librarians’ event by a lady who cheerfully told me, “We like to think of ourselves as ‘information providers.’” I was appalled by this want of ambition; I made my excuses and didn’t go. After all, if you have a choice, why not call yourselves “Shining Acolytes of the Sacred Flame of Literacy in a Dark and Encroaching Universe”? I admit this is hard to put on a button, so why not abbreviate it to “librarians”?”
Terry Pratchett, A Slip of the Keyboard: Collected Non-Fiction
