Reading about the early days of Evidence-Based Librarianship and came across this gem:

“A profession without reflective practitioners willing to learn about the advances in research in the field is a blinkered profession, one that is disconnected from best practice and best thinking, and one which, by default, often resorts to advocacy and position as a bid for survival.”
