His entry in ''The New Discworld Companion'' states:
:originally rather lazy by nature, he seems to have blossomed to become the youngest and most depressingly keen member of the faculty ... as one of the few wizards at the University with his head screwed on in any fashion, he appears, quite against his will, to be in the front line.<ref name="The New Discworld Companion (2003)">{{cite book |last1=Pratchett |first1=Terry |title=The New Discworld Companion |date=2003 |publisher=London, Gollancz |isbn=9780575074675 |page=129 |ref=Companion}}</ref>

In the film version of ''Hogfather'' he is portrayed by [[Ed Coleman (actor)|Ed Coleman]].<ref name="Hogfather (2006)" />

Stibbons also appears in the video game ''[[Discworld II]]'', in the High Energy Facility. He is characterized differently than in the books, evidenced by his erratic speech patterns and verbal tics, as well as his denials that he is being adversely affected by working on [[Hex (Discworld)|Hex]].
