Transylvanian Librarian Goes Wild

Free Image hosting by ImageSnap(Brasov, Romania) A 43-year-old professor at the University of Transylvania, Angela Repanovici, has been sacked from her position as chief librarian for inappropriate conduct.

Repanovici was dismissed after a video appeared on YouTube which shows her doing an Eastern European version of gal-gone-wild. She exposed her unmentionables in an undulating striptease dance.

Someone carried a cameraphone into the party of colleagues in the university library and then posted the video on YouTube. Professor Repanovici claims she is the victim of blackmail and wants the police to identify the person who filmed and posted the video.

Although she lost the library job, the university will allow her to continue teaching mechanical engineering. However, she has been banned from occupying any leadership position for three years.

Personally, I'd question just what is being served in the school cafeteria which might contribute to craziness among a group of librarians. Also, this incident provides some evidence that not all librarians are stereotypical stuffy prudes.
