SLA Europe About I started this blog when I was a frustrated job-hunting librarian. One of my favorite job-hunting resources is Alison Green’s Ask A Manager blog. She gives great advice, not just because she’s a smart lady with a lot of common sense, but because she has worked as a hiring manager and is able to provide insight into the great mystery of how they think. Inspired by her work, I wanted to create a venue which allowed people who make hiring decisions to explain their enigmatic thinking. To this end, I created a survey instrument which could be completed anonymously (or not), and solicited help from anyone who might hire a librarian, in all library types, as well as in non-library organizations that hire information professionals. I hope that you will also participate, either by leaving a comment or in one of the other ways detailed on that page. If you’d like to read more about this project, I’ve written about it: Lessons from Hiring Librarians. (2012, June). Like this: Like Loading...
