Librarian career?

Question:

Librarian career?

I am wanting some information about working a s a librarian. Will librarians be replaced by assistants who don't have to be paid as much? I saw some infromation that said that the number of librarians was growing more slowly than the assistants. Is this true?

How many jobs are there for librarians? What does it pay? What is the work like? If you could tell me any more that would be fantastic.

I don't fully agree with the other poster. True, the tradional role of the librarian is changing, due to advances in technology and changes in information storage, but librarians are adapting to the changes, and I think librarians will be around in one form or another for quite awhile, even if they're not sitting behind a reference desk answering questions.
