Thank you so much for saying "Now I know there is more to libraries"! We do more than keep a building full of books but everyone doesn't seem to understand that. (BTW I still get to stamp books and periodicals with the name of our library. :0) ) -An actual librarian in Sweden
Erik Rensberger Public libraries are of course focused on helping people find information they need or stories they enjoy. Today public libraries are also one of the last undemanding meeting places for people of all walks of life. Being a meeting place is of course great but might cut in to the peace and quiet that some people want. Even though there is a difference between a public library and a university library there should not be screaming and there is usually a specific "quiet room" for those who need it. I'm Swedish but here public libraries often have stages for plays, meetings with authors. lectures, concerts etc. We often have a room for art exhibits. We work with schools to support education in information science (badly needed in a time of alternative facts!) and reading even if that's mostly a job for school libraries. We help new Swedes learn Swedish and learn about Sweden with language cafés and more. We provide activities focused on culture like art workshops, book clubs, writing workshops and Harry Potter days. We bring books to those who can't visit us like the elderly or people who have broken their leg. We help people bridge the digital gap and learn about computers. We work with preschools to inform new parents about the importance of reading and language development. We help people with reading disorders find tools to aid them. I could probably think of more if I tried... Being a tired librarian isn't hard when people have a library card! :0)
I understand that you feel like all libraries should be calm and quiet. We shouldn't allow loud noises like playing music on your phone or shouting across the room. If it's possible we should try to have seperate areas for programs or schedule programs outside of opening hours. But it seems like you're after a university library with absolute silence for research. A lot of programs would be cut. Helping seniors explore the web in a senior surf class, a lecture about local history or a language café helping new citizens to learn a new language might all bleed into the library if you're not lucky. There aren't a lot of places in Sweden that have theaters or galleries. In many places with libraries without the best, soundproof spaces we would give up the last host of cultural events. There would no longer be anywhere for people of all walks of life to meet and talk. We would even have to turn away people who might not be able to be quiet like small children or people with autism. University libraries have a different purpose instead: supporting specific educations. Public libraries don't. In my opinion we would become pretty pointless and deserted. I would personally be sad to lose the opportunity to listen to authors, join a bookclub or just have an unexpected conversation. You don't have to agree of course, it's just my opinion.
Ulysses is set un Dublin , Ruth was raised In Limerick , She studied drama in Trinity college Dublin and has lived in London that may explain her subtle Irish brogue .
Yes she is that also but in terms of looks she resembles her African ancestry, as an African it didnt take me a while to just look at her and I was like she has to be Eritrean or Ethiopian.
Her whole look is so 1920's, very Betty Boop-ish
the only thing missing is a bigger head
And the original Betty Boop as well.Esther Jones ❤❤
Her eyes are so mesmerizing.....
I know nobody cares but I'd love to be a librarian. Such the dreamy job for me.
It's a great career! I'm not a librarian any more but it was fun.
It really is a dream job! Do it! Way more than the stereotypes tho. ( :
She’s so beautiful omg
Her voice is so lovely!!!
I'm a straight female, and completely in love with Ruth. She's just so lovely

wow her accent and the way she speaks is so calming to listen to
She's so graceful and lovely.
I have no idea who you are, but three minutes was more than enough to earn my undying adoration.
I am so attracted to the way this woman's mind works & shes gorgeous. Wtf I thought people who think like that went extinct.
posture straight as a board. wow.
I 100% agree with the librarian stamp I always was like damn I wanna stamp the back of the book it looked so satisfying to me lol
Well... She's even more adorable as herself...
She’s like an elegant, posh, roaring twenties punk rocker
Just because one may not like to study, doesn’t mean they don’t like to learn, they might really enjoy learning!
From the city that gave the world Richard Harris , Terry Wogan , The Cranberries .Angela's Ashes , and the Rubber Bandits
veronicadredd22 what no Ulysses? Doesn't sound very Irish though. Posh drama school?

Shes Irish
Yes she is that also but in terms of looks she resembles her African ancestry, as an African it didnt take me a while to just look at her and I was like she has to be Eritrean or Ethiopian.
Thats true, my mistake.
Yamkela Grey she looks Irish to me her facial features does.

She's Irish. Her accent is Irish.
Did she have elocution classes as a child or something, her Irish accent is barely recognisable
This reply is really late but no she's just lived in London for a long time
