Eight Librarians Flip Their Skills To Serve a New Calling

Eight Librarians Flip Their Skills To Serve a New Calling | Education 2.0 & 3.0 | Scoop.it

“Being a librarian isn’t a job that ends with a shift,” says Megan M. Cusick, grassroots specialist in the Office for Library Advocacy (OLA) at the America Library Association (ALA). “We’re always building connections in the community and expanding our resource base.”

Those qualities inform school and children’s librarians’ decisions when they change career tracks, as Cusick did, either midstream or after decades on the job. Their skills—tech expertise and engagement with books and learning, often enhanced by a passion for advocacy—position them well for a career shift.
