(More customer reviews)The Deluxe Librarian Action Figure is a fun collector's item. It is a thing of beauty. It is a gag gift. It is not realistic. It is oh-so-true-to-life.
Am I contradicting myself? Then I contradict myself. I am a PK3-8 librarian. Let's see how we compare. Just how realistic is she?
*I do not wear dresses. I wallow on the floor far too often. If I must climb a ladder, I don't have to worry that little people below, well you know. I do own two burgundy dresses that just hang out in my closet. I do wear russet pants and a chocolate sweater. Close enough. Or chocolate pants and a russet top.
*I have a computer and I am on it everyday! Hmmmm. My students know words like processing books, automating, Dewey Decimal, the 500's, Caldecotts.
*No book cart. No, wait, oops, I use it everyday to haul books back and forth, forth and back for automation purposes.
*Stacks of books--OK, ALL OVER THE PLACE. EVERY WHERE.
*The product description says there are also "loose books." What does that mean--loose books? Were they corralled and some got out and are now loose? Or do they have low morals? Let's look around my library. Loose? Loose? A couple over there. One under the table. Two laying on the shelf, some in a chair. OK, loose we have.
*Reference desk. Nope. Too covered with stuff. "Ms Judy, where can I find books on owls?" "Ms Judy, I need a book on a person for my book report. Who do you think I should do it on?" "Ms Judy, could I check out two books today? I don't have any overdue." Reference desk, OK, that would be me, a walking-around, helping me.
*Shushing. I can shush all I want, but they will talk any way. Do I really care? They are still excited about books until middle school. I want them to look and laugh, point out and share, to sit on the floor in groups and read things to each other, to lay on floor pillows and read silently. How can you have those things if you have a shushing librarian?
To sum up, as you can see, the Deluxe Librarian Action Figure is nothing like me nor I anything like her. But I would love to have one! You know, a collector's item. Gag gift. Whatever.
Dedicated to K. Corn.

If you just can't get enough of the Dewey decimals or if you go bananas for books, chances are you have a Librarian Action Figure. Nancy Pearl's likeness made history as the best selling Librarian Action Figure of all time, but the true collector needs this Deluxe Edition. Each 5" (12.7 cm) tall, hard vinyl figure is dressed in a stylish burgundy outfit and comes in a library diorama with a reference desk, computer, book cart, multiple book stacks and some loose books. Press the button on her back for the infamous "amazing shushing action!"
