(Info compiled from web sources yesterday when I had a spare brain cell and wanted to provide entertainment to you.)Barbara Gordon (of DC Comics fame) was the daughter of Gotham City's Police Commissioner James Gordon and the city's Head Librarian.
One evening, dressed in a home-made "Batgirl" costume on the way to a policemans' masquerade ball, she encountered the Killer Moth trying to kidnap wealthy industrialist Bruce Wayne (alias Batman). Luckily, being a brown belt in judo, she was able to drive him off. From then on she became Batgirl by night and librarian by day.
After being shot by the Joker, Batgirl became ORACLE, the premier information broker for the superheroes of the world. The best and smartest asked her for help to handle the tasks too big for their superpowers. (Is that why Oracle is called Oracle?)
Librarians, the greatest superheros of them all. KA-POW.
