You can take libray chic to a whole new level!). <br /><br />I work as the teacher-librarian in an elementary school and it's just perfect for me. I love, love, love children's books. I get to buy them, read them, read them aloud, share them with reluctant readers, watch their world open up... <br /><br />Follow your heart. It knows best where you belong. And if it's in the library, then so be it!Erin {pughs' news}https://www.blogger.com/profile/03261798020134673516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8518504875521534622.post-73803167900054374922010-03-12T07:10:41.607+10:002010-03-12T07:10:41.607+10:00When I think of Librarians I think of the movie &q...When I think of Librarians I think of the movie "You've Got Mail" with Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan. I love that she was the owner (librarian of sorts) for her little book shop and that she would read to the children and opened up people's minds for the wonderfulness of books and reading.

I think being a librarian suits you perfectly, and you know that I've always admired your heart for God's ministry as well. I'm glad you're not letting that desire go.

She had a (google tells me...) Master of Information Technology (Library and Information Science). That's about a year & 1/2 full time at QUT, or 3 years part-time. <br /><br />Of course, that's if you want to go down the career librarian path. I don't think there's any requirement for library assistant, but they are pretty popular jobs, therefore fairly competitive. I could pass on her deets if you want to know more about it.Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03340797263954622493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8518504875521534622.post-70341438381485193652010-03-10T13:53:47.668+10:002010-03-10T13:53:47.668+10:00Good luck.
