5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent source for would-be librarians

This review is from: Career Opportunities In Library And Information Science (Paperback)
If your looking for information on how and where to obtain a job in a library, this is a good book. Other than that, the book fails to give you examples on how far a degree in Library and Information Science can take you in the business world. If your not really interested in being a librarian, my advise would be to pick up another book that gives you more options. Or, go back to school and get another type of degree. Your choice.
