Do librarians that work on public libraries get salaries?

Posted on January 31, 2010 by admin

I need to know because I want to work at a near library because I want to earn money.

Thank you.

Librarians do earn a salary, often a good one depending on the area. Most Librarians possess a Masters degree, if not higher. School librarians are often also required to maintain a state teaching certificate as well. Check out Salary.com for an idea of the average librarian salary in your area.
You can check out your local city or county website to see if they are hiring for an assistant or other non-degreed position.
Good luck!

    Librarians are usually state/city/county employees. They also usually have to have a Library Sciences degree to get these positions.
