Librarians organize and provide access to information, whether print materials, such as books, magazines and journals, or CDs, DVDs, music scores, maps, electronic books, electronic journals or databases. Today, opportunities for librarians are more varied than ever. While there's still plenty of work in the traditional settings of public, academic, corporate and government libraries, some librarians these days work as consultants or in information services companies, and other non-library jobs are growing in number. Librarians are also increasingly combining traditional duties with work involving technology. And the industry's embrace of technology ensures that users will continue to enjoy better access to better-organized information. Who will be behind these innovations? Librarians, of course. What You'll Find Inside: Information on librarianship and other degree programs, as well as internships and practicums How to prepare for your interview, and plentiful resume and cover letter advice A detailed look at librarian salaries and lifestyle, and uppers and downers of the field Profiles of various library careers, including children's librarian, public library director and genealogy librarian Employee surveys for 1,000s of top employers Vault Job Board-10,000s of top job listings Expert resume and cover letter reviews Named the "Top Choice" for resume makeovers by The Wall Street Journal Student and alumni surveys on top MBA, law school and undergraduate programs Book jacket.… (more)
