"So a comedian walks into a library and decides to work there..."

Meredith Myers, the "Stand-Up Librarian," has a Masters degree in Library & Information Sciences and has been performing stand-up comedy since 2002 after checking out a comedy book from her local library.  Binding her experiences in comedy and libraries, Meredith created www.StandUpLibrarian.com in June of 2010 to educate and entertain people about the importance of libraries and literacy through literary comedy shows and parody songs, interviews with authors and library personnel, and tours of unique libraries.  In 2012, she launched www.StandUpLibrarianDesigns.com so she would have something literary fabulous to wear. A combination of Pippi Longstocking and Sandra Bernhard with the style of Carrie Bradshaw, Meredith intends to bring an awareness to the often stereotyped library field revealing that librarians are as diverse as the books that line the library shelves.
