Do you need a masters degree for an entry level job?

M going to interview for Librarian I must say this is very informative

Solid video 🤙 Brilliant!

Thanks for the details , very informative . We have some great universities in my country with dedicated mathematics libraries , to work in these is really appealing to me , i am considering to get a master degree in information and librarian Science which make sense because i already have undergraduate degree in mathmatics and iam considering some advance degrees in math once i will be able to work in one of these incredible libraries , it will be like a dream come true to me working as a librarian (a field which i discover recently that i am in love with) not to mention when i may have the opertunity to combine it with with my favourite academic field . So to sum up ; to achieve the above mentioned aims : 1. Should i finish the librarian certification? 2. Working in this area will improve my knowledge and motivation to enter some higher mathmatics degrees in the future ? I will be greatful if you know something about these specific libraries and advise to me if i am in the right direction , or just dreaming : )

Do you get Benefits and 401 k plan?

so funny, I manage a movie theater and am looking to go into libraries and i see a lot of similarities. People absolutely 900000% assume we as employees personally screen every single movie before we play it and know everything about it and its cast which makes no sense since there are obviously multiple new movies every single week :"D Who has the time. Thanks for making this video, it was really helpful. even if i am 3 years late

This might be a really dumb question. I like the idea of working in a library, but I don’t care much for reading. Other than the rainbow fish and the hungry hungry caterpillar I’ve honestly read one book. On the plus side I suppose that makes me extremely unbiased, on the downside asking for book recommendations from me would be like asking your cat for driving advice. P.s. I just like the atmosphere of a library and how organised and civil it is. Spent most of my childhood using computers at a library and it always felt like a safe space.

I feel you on that one. I use to work at Guitar Center in the drum department. People use to say "oh you get to sit around and play drums all day or play with all the other instruments", well no, not exactly, there's work to be done, there are sales to be made.

My other question is do they get benefits and 401k plan?

Is it hard to find a job as a Librarian? The reason is I'm thinking about becoming a Librarian.

How many hours do you work a week? And do you get a salary or hourly pay? Who pays you?

Hi there! I really enjoyed watching your video. For the longest now (after undergrad) I have been having a hard time deciding my career path. Every time I write out a list of potential career interests being a librarian cames up but I doubted myself because I have no educational background or experience. I have always enjoyed going to the library growing up. I like to discover new libraries and utilize their many services. I am in love with libraries because of all the knowledge, resources, and activities being shared to our communities. It's a safe haven for me. My question is, can a person with no actual experience (education or work) pursue being a librarian? Also, I have applied for a Library Page position in my area to get the opportunity to gain experience. I am required to take a written exam before an interview. Do you have any recommendations on what to study on?

Honestly Librarians are the Nicest and most helpful people ever lol

Wow! A young library director. 👏🏽

Thank you for this excellent video!!

Nice video mam iam also a librarian in a school. frm india.thnks

Did you ever been sleepy while in library? How did you resolve it?

Don't know whether I want to do this or work in the health industry

Great video!

This is an excellent and very informative video! Thank you!

Hi Katie! I love your video. Thank you for sharing about your job! I just subscribed. I am going to college for library and information science right now. I recently started making videos about library science too, so I am glad to find another library related channel 😊

What's a different between digital library and virtual library

Thank you so much for this information. I am a undergraduate student. My major is psychology. I’m about to get my bachelors and I think I want to go in a different direction got my masters. I work on campus in the illiad department and I love it.

I am now student of library management

About what percentage of your job is face to face with people?

I know you mentioned that you didn’t need the masters for the library director position, I’m just curious if that extended the the librarian positions as well- or if those positions required an MSLIS? I live in NYS and I had decided to get my MSLIS because the research I did and librarians from my hometown confirmed that’s what I needed (100% don’t believe the masters is necessary, but that’s a whole separate issue)

I have the same background. I worked in a library during my Literature degree. I Also worked in a bookshop for about a year and I didn't like it as much as working in a library. I will begin my master in Archival and Library Information studies. I can't wait to be working in a library again! :)

I’m working on my undergrad right now, I hope to get my masters in library/information science one day :D

Sounds fun!!!

Thanks so much for this video! I was second guessing my decision to become a librarian, but this video helped so much! It made me much more excited!

What did the librarian say to the students? Read more

Great video! Definitely informative and has me excited about my upcoming library job!!

I just got hired as a library assistant at a medical school. So excited to work. Great video. I love to learn that your day never look the same as a librarian. There is always something new happening. I'm your new subscriber. :)

it looks soooo good!

Excellent video!!!

What an interesting video! I love the idea of working in a library- libraries offer SO much and do so much for the community. You're doing such important work. I'm in the process of becoming a therapist, which I'll love, but part of me feels that if after many decades, if I wanted a career change, becoming a librarian would be that second career. Do you find that watching Booktube helps you to choose the new books to buy for the library or recommending patrons those books?
