Health Science Librarian

Duties and Responsibilities:

Health Sciences Librarians and Library Technicians collect and organize medical information and help practitioners find the information they need for patient care, education, research, and administration.

 Librarians select and acquire books, journals, files and other library material.  They also establish electronic and digital database information systems.  They organize this information into collections and develop catalogs for access and provide reference assistance to patrons.  They coordinate and control budgets and supervise other library technicians.

Average Salary: $20,000-$55,000

Educational Requirements:

 Students should take challenging high school courses in information management, science, math, and English. Health Science Librarians should earn an undergraduate degree in one of the life sciences and must earn a master's degree in library science from a program that is accredited by the American Library Association.  Some library science graduate programs offer specialized courses in health science librarianship.

In my opinion I wouldn't like to be a Health Science librarian because I wouldn't like to work filing information and organizing data, instead I would rather work with patients not the patient’s records.
