54. exactly
I'm an (aspiring) librarian (library reference assistant, to be exact.) The other day, someone wanted the "O'Reilly Factor For Kids", for their child. Now, can you guess what would have happened if I would have refused to show her where it was or reserve it for her, just because the thought of filling some poor kid's head with O'Lie-llyisms nauseates me? I am very passionate in my belief that right wing misinformation is damaging to society, but I can't not do my job based on those beliefs. At least, I can't if I realistically want to find work as a librarian. And that's as it should be! I wouldn't want to work for a library system that supported its librarians in preventing patrons from accessing materials.

As other people have asked, "Why are these people pharmacists???"
