A must-have guide of professional development resources for library staff at every phase of their career--from those just entering the field, to paraprofessionals building a career trajectory, to seasoned librarians looking to explore additional career options.

Thousands of students graduate with a Master of Library and Information Science degree every year. Unfortunately, budget cuts at libraries diminish available job opportunities and prompt administrators to hire less qualified--and less expensive--professionals. However, armed with the right information, library science professionals can successfully build and sustain a resilient library and information science (LIS) career inside--or outside--the traditional library setting.

LIS Career Sourcebook: Managing and Maximizing Every Step of Your Career provides a chapter-by-chapter overview of key career stages and strategies, and identifies for each the best information resources to help readers develop a successful LIS career. The author lays out the typical stages that workers are likely to encounter as they move through their professional life, highlighting important issues associated with each stage and providing insights and resources for making smart career choices along the way. Covering the entire career lifespan from entry level to retirement, the resources cited will help readers make informed choices about career options, professional development, and personal career satisfaction.
