If a person writes programs -- code, then one is a coder. It's as simple as
that, whether one has a computer science degree or not.
I have always been puzzled by the self-consciousness betraying a lack of
confidence that librarians suffer about what they do. "Is Librarianship a
profession?" s

Shirley,
I would hesitantly call myself a coder. I would _never_ call myself a
software engineer. I am also a librarian. I think what Andromeda was
probably arguing (not that I would deign to put words in her mouth) was
that we should get over our imposter syndrome and stand up for our skills.

Can we agree that "lib" is simply easier to say than "libe" due to the

Can we also agree than the best coders are, by nature, lazy?

I'm going to go out on a limb and say your dad's a transplant from the
midwest or the mid Atlantic states.
I'm guessing you can pronounce Willamette either because you know the
region, are used to crazy English spellings used to refer to Native
American place names, or both.

I just say I work in libraries -- that describes anyone with or without the
degree. It's not as concise, but it conveys the right idea.
I see no reason to preface anything you say with what you don't have. If
people require your resume to decide if your ideas are any good, it's just
not a good si
I can pronounce Willamette and living in WA; does that prove your point?

sliding more towards LIBE. I have no idea why.
