[Publib] as a profession......loyalty?

[Fred Librarian]

Granted I am somewhat new to the profession but I read and see all the opinions and projections regarding librarians.  So many librarians are needed and so many are expressing a work environment where they do not feel safe or valued.

I feel that there is a true lack of motivation by administrators to cultivate loyalty in and around employees. They want to save money and for some it appears at a very deep cost.  It seems the given attitudes are "I will free-up your future," or "if you don't do such and such then there is a long line of people who would love your job."

If fear tactics are what employees are being beaten with then why be a librarian?
