Library Jobs?

Sunday, December 27th, 2009

I’d love to work in a library, but I’m not sure how realistic it would be for me to get a masters degree in information and library sciences at this point in my life. Other than Library Technician, what other jobs are there in libraries? What specific education/training do librarians’ assistants need? Is there anything in the library for someone with a 3-year BA?
(If it’s relevant, I live in Ontario. )
Thanks so much!
