Health Sciences Librarian

Duties and Responsibilities:

A health science librarian provides access to medical information through written sources, tapes, multimedia presentations, and the Internet. Health science librarians help health providers, patients, and students sort through the vast amount of information available and make this information readily available and have the most accurate and suitable resources.

Health and science librarians in a variety of places such as the library of a health organization, a pharmaceutical company, health information centers, and medical schools. They need to be experts and databases and using the web.

Average Salary: $58,000

Education:

Students must graduate from high school, taking classes such as English, math, typing, and science. A four-year bachelor's degree is then required, including courses such as science and computer science. A master's degree in library science (MLS) is mandatory.

I think I would like to be a Health Science Librarian because it seems like a lot of work but it pays well and I am already somewhat familiar with the computer database.
