Other Career Resources

Career Education Center

Services available include extensive job listings developed through the joint efforts of the Graduate School of Library and Information Science and the Career Education Center. A series of workshops on resume writing, interviewing skills, job-search strategies, and related career planning issues are also available to help prepare professionals for their first positions. Students may register with the Career Education Center to establish a recommendations file to house letters of reference, which can further support their candidacy for positions. Attention is given to the particular career needs through appointments with the Career Education Center. The school and the Library and Information Science Student Association (LISSA) support these efforts to help students with their career goals by offering additional or joint programs.

Career Resource Library

Located on the third floor of One Palace Road, the Career Resource Library is a specialized collection of career planning, job hunting, employer, and graduate school information. A librarian is available to assist students and alumni with their career research. Please call 617-521-2510 for more information.

The Office of the Assistant Dean maintains a comprehensive list of professional and preprofessional positions available in the greater Boston area, New England, and out-of-state libraries.
