Professional Prism of Trust


Professional Prism of Trust

I found this interesting, because the professional branding of librarians, and the associated trust, is definitely an issue that we need to consider, when challenging the stereotypes of librarians.

Where would you say that Librarians fit into this prism? (I'd suggest somewhere between dentist and nurse)

How does our role as potential "social media experts" effect our branding of trustworthiness?

i'm almost offended... people trust doctors more than nurses...? they trust the people who cut you open more than the ones that rub lanolin around your anus because your poo stings? yes i did this this morning.
