The Hollywood Librarian
Movie showing: 2000bc
A full-length film, made by ANN SEIDL, which explores how Librarians are depicted in the movies,
and compares that with the roles of Librarians in the real world today. We will be showing it in a
1600-seater theatre, with popcorn and soda on sale, to try to suggest the real "movie" feel.
It will be followed by a short forum discussion chaired by IFLA President CLAUDIA LUX
(whose Presidential theme is "Libraries on the Agenda"), and featuring ANN SEIDL herself. Joining them will be two IFLA experts:
MADELEINE LEFEBVRE, Chief Librarian at Ryerson University, Toronto, former president of the
Canadian Library Association and author of "The Romance of Libraries", is also a professional movie, theatre and TV actress.
HOWARD BESSER, Professor of Cinema Studies at New York University, is also a Professor Emeritus at
UCLA's Department of Information Studies. He is a frequent speaker on the social and cultural effects of the media.
