Most
patrons of public libraries are unaware of the difference between a circulation
desk clerk and a librarian and startled to know a master’s degree is
involved. Regarding archivists, as soon as people stop saying “A
what?” after I tell them what I do, the profession will have
arrived. Meanwhile, educational requirements when reeled off to the
uninitiated at least provide a modicum of respect.
