The series centres on the trials and tribulations of Frances O'Brien, a devoutly Catholic and blithely racist Head Librarian. Her life unravels when she is forced to employ her ex-best friend, Christine Grimwood – now a drug dealer – as the Children's Librarian. Frances must do all she can to contain her menacing past and concentrate on the biggest event of the library calendar – Book Week.
Filming on a third and final series took place in early 2010 and aired on ABC1 later that year. The Librarians theme music is an upbeat variation on the popular jazz tune "A Night in Tunisia" by Dizzy Gillespie.
