Librarians in Career Romance Novels
Career romance novels appeared in the US during the 1940s-1960s as women entered the workforce in increasing numbers. Publishers sought to exploit this demographic trend with books featuring accomplished and attractive young women simultaneously persuing their professional and romantic goals. Most of the books were written by professionals in their field, here by librarian authors starring heroine librarians who find love amidst the glamour of card catalogues, microfilm readers and bookmobiles.
The Image of Librarians in Pornography
The librarian is a popular character in hardcore pornographic paperback novels. The librarian, most always portrayed as female, is depicted in a variety of types of libraries; public, academic, high school, special branches, etc. Often the library descriptions and situations make it appear as though the authors are either themselves librarians or frequent library users while others seem to have never even been in a library.
