Abstract
Today librarians are keeping up on how the users will approach them without even thinking their first impressions about them. The wrong stereotyping of librarians is more probable to have a negative effect in the enticement of librarianship as a profession to the new generation. There is a lot of stereotyping about the profession that is circulating the World Wide Web, specifically in the famous social networking sites. Moreover, there is a need to recognize what are the stereotypes the librarian are facing not just in the vicinity of the library itself, but also to the social networking sites where millions of people can get access to.
