Happy New Year!

Sorry I didn’t have time to post anything today (been working on cover letters ALL day) but I wanted to wish everyone a happy and safe New Year. I’m just spending New Year’s with family tonight. With all that’s happened in the world over the past week, I’d rather just be around loved ones than party and drink too much. Here’s to good employment news in 2005!

Hello,
I do not know if Iam grateful or scared to have found this site.
Is there really that much of a librarian job shortage out there?
I am contemplating getting my SLMS degree from SUNY Albany (done in 2007)
Now Iam questioning if the trime, effort and cost is worth it.
ANY info comments etc is more than appreciated. I am 43 and have 20 years of business experience but no library experience.
Thanks
Brooke
