I think I am seeing double, although normally that would work sideways.

Just wonder if we get to know who n the board would pass that test...

In fiction, anything goes, I guess.

But here are the 25 occupations with the highest on-the-job death rates (can't find murder likelihood)

By gender: the most dangerous jobs are likely to be mostly held by men (library jobs are mostly held by women).

Factory/industrial jobs are high on the death list. Do librarians get exposed to much danger? Only wacky patrons and maybe asbestos.smiley - winkeye

Ah, but this story isn't set in the USA smiley - winkeye

Mind you the librarian thing was inspired by 'It's A Wonderful Life' in which George's wife Mary - in a reality in which George had never been born - had become a spinster librarian with poor eyesight. Even though in the original reality she had been in a relationship with George's mate Sam before marrying George and not needing glasses.

So in this story librarians are the polar opposite of dull spinsters.
