Lingkup Pembahasan:
Buku ini mencakup berbagai macam pekerjaan tradisional dan non-tradisional. Jelas, bahkan dengan
sejumlah besar pekerjaan yang kita lakukan termasuk, kita tidak bisa mencakup semua cara orang menggunakan LIS gelar mereka. Pada kenyataannya, kita harus menolak lebih dari 300 orang yang menawarkan untuk menulis tentang pekerjaan mereka yang menarik (kami berharap mereka akan mempertimbangkan berbagi pengalaman pekerjaan mereka di LIScareer.com)!.
Selain publik, akademik, sekolah, dan perpustakaan khusus, buku ini juga mewakili konsorsium,
asosiasi, program LIS, vendor, penerbit, konsultan, dan bidang nonlibrary.
Meskipun buku ini terutama ditujukan untuk para profesional bidang informasi yang bekerja di Amerika Serikat dan Kanada, beberapa penulis telah menulis tentang pengalaman mereka bekerja di seluruh dunia, termasuk Australia, Bolivia, Inggris, Jerman, Hongaria, Nigeria, Norwegia, Filipina, Qatar, dan
Skotlandia.
Kepustakawanan adalah trik sulap, profesi yang sempurna untuk seseorang yang suka mengutak-atik di belakang layar atau cekatan memanfaatkan Googled atau diindeks dari pikiran dan firasat yang mendalam. Kepustakawanan adalah sebuah proses. Pustakawan adalah penerjemah antara sumber daya dan pelanggan kami, masing-masing terus berubah dan berkembang.
