The difference between a Librarian and Library Technician

Have you ever tried to explain to someone what you do and they can't comprehend it. I try to explain that I am studying to be a Library Technician to which they reply, what will that make you a Librarian. Insert HUGE sigh here. My goolly goodness it is hardto get it understood the difference between a Librarian and a Library Technician. Basically Library Techs do most of what Librarians do without the managerial duties. Spread the message people. We Library Techs want to be recognised and valued as our own entity.
