  • Word of the Year 2007,

    Probably only a word seen in the library world, but the terrifying term Guybrarian entered the NZ library vernacular in 07 c/o a NY Times article about 'next gen' librarians in the fashion section(?!)

    The term clearly refers to poor sops like me: the sole male working in my particular corner of the library world.

    Guybrarian received a bit of discussion on the NZ Libs list earlier in the year - mostly pleas by male librarians asking for others not to start using the word to describe them.
