That librarian guy is great and he works for free!
If I want to know what shelf the book is on or how its filed, he'll tell me, and even let me go into the stacks and get the book myself, but if I screw up his filing system I've only myself to blame when he stops working.

While that is also a good analogy, every librarian I ever dealt with would just point me toward the card catalogue (at least the computerized ones have good search engines).
