Harris, Charlaine. Real Murders (New York: Walker, 1990) 175 p.

Aurora Teagarden is a 4'11" librarian in a small public library. Her work is not intrinsic to the story. When we find her at work she is alas shelving books. The Director is Sam Clerrick, who is interested in keeping the library open evenings. "Mr. Clerrick, with his usual efficiency and lack of knowledge of the human race, had already prepared the new duty charts and he distributed them on the spot, instead of giving everyone the chance to digest and discuss the new schedule." (p. 89).
