I've been working on a few new public personas that I have been trying out at the library. 

1. Rock n Roll Carl. Rock n Roll Carl wears black plastic glasses. He doesn't take no for an answer and he doesn't ask any questions. Rock n Roll Carl talks over the top of the person he is speaking to, in so many ways. Rock n Roll Carl does not like soft rock and he wants to be clear on that. 

2. Jeff Coleslaw. Jeff Coleslaw doesn't have any clear opinions. He does not wear glasses. Jeff Coleslaw sometimes laughs out loud but kinda fake laughy and quietly when he is reading a book. He wears a bluetooth sometimes. Jeff Coleslaw likes Oasis.

Why can't there be a Carl and/or Jeff at my library? Let me know if you open a franchise.

Is this like a Clark Kent thing, where the presence of glasses makes it impossible for people to realise that the two men are, indeed, one? Or are you trying these personae at different libraries?
