Pasadena, CA — Libraries, all over the US, have reported a significant increase in visitors as more and more people are turning towards libraries for help in this rocky economy. Also, library card registration reported an all-time high scaling all previous records since the measurement of library card usage started in 1990.
A new EmploymentCrossing website, LibraryCrossing (www.librarycrossing.com), seeks to consolidate every job for library professionals. LibraryCrossing offers all types of library jobs, details on career advancement opportunities, and employment information. LibraryCrossing contains library assistant jobs, library manager jobs, library director jobs, library coordinator jobs, public library jobs, library helper jobs, library technician jobs, and all types of job listings for those pursuing library-related occupations.
Throngs of people are using library computers and other research materials to find jobs, submit employment applications, and apply for unemployment benefits. Some are also looking for entertainment options by checking out books, DVDs, and CDs for free instead of buying or renting. Library professionals have gained wide popularity recently as they play a crucial role in many US libraries; guiding thousands of people in different projects and subjects.
According to the US Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment is expected to grow more rapidly in special libraries because many professionals of varying career backgrounds use those libraries. The employment outlook is especially bright for postsecondary library-trained professionals. However, because of the increase in use of electronic information systems, demand for library technicians rather than traditional librarians has increased significantly.
''In this market it is extremely hard to get a job with a recruiter, and recruiters typically work with very few companies,'' says Harrison Barnes, founder and CEO of LibraryCrossing. ''Job openings that are not widely known or publicized are the easiest jobs to get.''
Despite the looming recession, there will always be a need for qualified librarians. LibraryCrossing was launched to assist library professionals with sorting out the opportunities that they may not find out otherwise. Unlike other job boards, the site focuses solely on library jobs, and it doesn't charge employers to post jobs.
''LibraryCrossing is a research company that works for job seekers,'' Barnes says. ''We seek to connect you to employers.''
Barnes emphasizes that LibraryCrossing is committed to finding new sources of jobs daily. ''There are astonishing number of library job openings out there. We want to find them all,'' he says.
