Yes, Here Lies the Librarian includes librarians as characters. However, the book seemed to be more about cars in Indiana circa 1914. I must say I didn't love the book, but I didn't hate it either. Once I shifted my mindset from librarians to cars, it wasn't so bad. In fact, I found it quite informative about the early days of cars, roads, and auto repair shops. I had no idea one auto maker actually built cars with wooden frames including wooden tire rims. I also enjoyed reading about the community as Peck depicted it. I could easily visualize it.
