person who works in a library
A person whose job is to work in a library, organize books and other items, and help people find what they need.
Verwendungsmuster:
a librarian at [a place]
Häufiger Fehler:
Learners sometimes say *"She is a library"* instead of *"She is a librarian"*. Remember: a *library* is the place, and a *librarian* is the person who works there. Some also confuse *librarian* with *bookstore worker*; a librarian works in a public, school, or university library, not in a shop that sells books.

information specialist (More formal and broader; can refer to similar work outside a traditional library.)
Antonyme
patron (Refers to a library user or customer rather than a member of the library staff.)
