Bibliofile


	Job Resource Information In a user study conducted last year by Bibliofile , the majority of respondants indicated that they wanted to see job information featured in Bibliofile. In an effort to begin the year off right, we decided to reprint (with slight modifications) the following list of online and print resources for job advertisements. The list was taken from the April 2002 issue of Bibliofile and covers most major specializations in library and information sciences, including academic libraries, archives, public libraries, and special libraries, among others. You might begin your career planning with subscribing to the MLIS listserv, which is an excellent resource for job announcements. See information about subscribing to the listserv in the "Get Involved!" article. As you get closer to graduation, you might want to contact the university's Career Services via their website ( http://www.careers.pitt.edu ) or phone/email Steve Rakas, the LIS contact, at (412) 648-7130/ srakas@pitt.edu . Also, don't forget the jobs posting board on the sixth floor, which covers jobs in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Maryland, and West Virginia. These postings are also listed in the job binders in the library on the third floor. The job binders contain all job postings from around the country received by DLIS. Ask the librarian on duty for the folders, which are kept behind the circ desk.
