Awesome in a wizard deck with with card drawing effects like Azami, Lady of Scrolls or Arcanis the Omnipotent. It's almost as broken a combo than Sensei's Divining Top, although in the top's case the top IS the combo.

Lady Azami of the scrolls? No... With her, I just wind up drawing about that may cards anyway...
No, what you want it something that lets you draw one card...

Abuse it like you abuse brainstorm. It has amazing synergy with fetchlands and wizardcycling, not to mention Magus of the Future

Untap
Upkeep - tap this card
Draw your desired card
Main phase - fetch land, tutor to shuffle your library to repeat (maybe the same turn).

This is a great enabler for a potential control deck revolving around Patron Wizard. It allows you to find more wizards early on, search for the patron control piece, and find your win condition. There's a reason big Jace is so good, and this a budget version that has tribal synergy. As a matter of fact, Jace is a bit like Supreme Inquisitor, Surge Spanner, and Information Dealer rolled into one.

You know what I LOVE about Orcish Librarian? And sorry Lege but I'm picking on you in this case, I love all the "Captain Obvious" comments. This card is awesome in a wizard deck? Well no S**T! Thanks Madden, you cracked the secret! A card triggered by wizards that's actually great in a deck full of wizards. Who'd a thunk it?? Haha and yet the obvious keeps coming. Some ppl are stupid, granted, but NO ONE is so dumb they need that pointed out.. lol
