To Clarify-Again...Different topic

On Easy Job:
I think anyone who posses the following skills whether MLS degreed or not, should be considered:
A healthy attitude toward technology,Good teaching skills,An understanding of the use of technology and the information literacy process and its use in developing higher level thinking skills, skilled at integrating situations and collaborating with others,Knowledge of automated library catalogs, circulation systems, electronic reference materials, and library workstations (to teach the new library one must know their way around the new library),Able to provide tech support, Knowledge of an ethical use of technology (can evaluate information,understand the copyright laws and intellectual property issues, how to use resources correctly,Creative problem solver, Self starter,Web development experience.....

I still think these skills can be found without having to resort to MLS degreed only. I do believe any successful grad student could approach this job, I also feel those en route to MLS can perform very well in this position, I also believe that any person with or without a degree who has these skills (gathered in the "school of life") from other jobs and personal experiences can do well in this job. Yes it requires continued study and reading and I think just because one has an MLS degree does not guarantee that the MLS degreed person will continue to grow as the job grows or as libraries grow and evolve in general. I think anyone with an English degree could do this job with some prep from a few trade journals as long as they gain the skills I listed above. Once again, I don't believe this is the most challenging of MLS jobs.

Once again, this is my opinion and you are exposed to it for as long as you read this blog. You can mutter and rant at my posts but I don't provide a reply option because I'm not interested in online sparring. Replies also take up too much space. I do, however, provide contact info on my website and have always thought anyone with basic online and web usage experience could easily find the way to contact me. Resourcefulness is a talent these days, some have it, others do not to a great degree. We need librarians to cultivate and help others become resourceful. I admit I tend to take it for granted.
