Question I am a recent graduate with a MLS (December2006). Finding a position as a librarian as been rather difficult. I specialized as a reference librarian. I need some recomendations as to what else I can do with My MlS. Also, I have a second masters in Public Administration. Can you help me?
Answer Before I try to answer your question and give you some ideas, I need some more information from you. Have you ever worked as a librarian anywhere, even as a student librarian? Did you work in public administration? Where do you live - what city or part of the country? If you could pursue any position in librarianship, what would it be? Please write back and I will try to give you some ideas.
