Meh, I knew library technologists. None of them had any marketable skills for automation. It was a med library, so they knew the intersection of library sciences and a lot about medicine, but few of them could even conceive of editing their own HTML.

I have never understood the technologist position in place. In this particular library, I could really impress them with automation ideas I had, but they just wanted cloud services to do stupid garbage for them instead of learning.

I guess they were more of power-cloudists, not technologists.
