As suggested in the what do ENWorlders do thread, here is a place for our many librarians (and all people who work in libraries) to talk, compare notes, complain, ask questions, etc.
I manage a reference department in a legislative library in Canada. There are 6 librarians and 4 support staff who report to me. Before coming here I spent 8 years in downtown urban public libraries. Before becoming the manager here, I was the webmaster. Like with some of the other librarians in that thread, we are very heavy into government documents (about half our collection). I spend a lot of my time thinking about how to keep libraries and reference service relevant in the internet age...
