Health Science Librarian
Duties and Responsibilities:
Health science librarian work in many places. Some places are the library of a health organization, a pharmaceutical company, health information centers, and medical schools. Librarians are responsible for finding suitable resources, organizing those materials, so they can be easier to find. They are expert at searching specialized data and the Internet. Many of them produce web pages and other guides to finding health-related information resources. The librarian’s position can be full-time or part-time, often in small organizations.
Salary:  Average $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. Courses include scientific literature, biomedical communication, bibliographic resource use, library organization and management, and standard cataloging systems. While health science librarians are not required to be certified, the Medical Library Association does offer certification examinations which would help a librarian advance to a higher position.
