great links

Here are two great links I found today:

"Guide to College Majors in Library science"
http://www.worldwidelearn.com/online-education-guide/arts-humanities/library-science-major.htm
-This website highlights some unconventional careers pursued by people with a library and information science degree. It also explains the library accreditation process and the unique standards that apply to librarians in schools.

This next article highlights library science as a up and coming career, a field with many available opportunities.

People with the skills to program computers, manage databases, create websites, and write research papers are in high demand by businesses and government agencies. Many students were inspired by the tragedy of 9/11 to gain the skills to research and compact information to use in legal matters.
