Librarianism as profession

• ALA - American Library Association
• American Society for Information Science and Technology -- techier side of the profession
• LISjobs -- find a library job
• Occupation Outlook Handbook: Librarians -- how be a librarian with regards to education needed, work environment, job prospects, etc. If you've ever wondered what a librarian does, this is a good place to start.
