English abstract

This infographic report seeks to check what part of truth is hidden behind librarian stereotypes. The bun, the glasses, the antipathy, the introversion... Are Catalan librarians like this in the 21st century? Do they share any personal traits that have led them to the profession? To answer this questions, more than 500 qualified professionals from Catalonia (Spain) in working age were surveyed. The results are presented in an informal but rigorous way.

Catalan abstract

Aquest informe pretén, d'una manera informal però rigorosa, posar una mica de llum sobre la foscor dels tòpics bibliotecaris. Tots els que ens dediquem a la professió bibliotecària (en tota la seva magnitud i les seves variants) sabem de sobres que es diuen moltes coses sobre nosaltres. Tenim fama d’estranys, endogàmics, introvertits, friquis, i encara fins i tot algú diria que som uns amargats que hem escollit aquesta professió per poder passar el dia fent callar la gent. Però fins a quin punt poden ser certs aquests tòpics? S’ha parlat moltes vegades de perfils professionals, però quins elements compartim en l'àmbit sociològic? Tenim alguna cosa en comú que ens hagi fet arribar on som? Som realment una mica tal i com ens veuen? L'informe s'ha realitzat a través d'una enquesta en la qual van participar més de 500 professionals titulats de Catalunya (Espanya) entre 21 i 65 anys, edat que comprèn la vida professional un cop s'acaben els estudis universitaris.
