Casanova
Chairman Mao
Jorge Luis Borges
Philip Larkin
Lao Tze
Konstantinova Krupskaya
etc etc - see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_librarians
And if we allow fiction:
Batgirl
Giles from Buffy
Jorge (Name of the Rose)
The Librarian (Snowcrash)
and many many more
Not much CILIP though, but we save the world - a lot.
I have seen publishers' reps attending a conference scurry in terror
from a disco full of baying librarians whirling their handbags to 'Hi Ho
