Have you ever considered becoming a librarian, Veeky Forums?
I'm thinking of doing a Masters in Librarian studies. Basically I'm looking for a job where I can do a lot of sitting down at a computer with nothing to do so I can write in free time while I'm working.
Jace Sullivan
No, I couldn't stand to see women walking around in a library like they have any business there, or as if they belong
Sebastian Garcia
I hope to work in a Legal or College library. Hopefully a few less ditzy chick-lit reading women.

It's a comfy life
Nicholas Sanchez
library science is one of few jobs 100% guaranteed to be automated my dude don't bother
Leo Russell
If I could do it all again, I would've done a librarian degree straight after school as it only takes a year, and then worked as a librarian whilst doing my bachelor degree.
Hindsight eh?
Ian Anderson
It's the standard, minimum degree to become a librarian.
Carter Taylor
What do you mean? It takes a year but it's a graduate degree. You need to do a 4 year degree first.
Michael Martinez
That sounds pretty neat. My job is more or less the same. (I mean the whole having a lot of free time to do other things) Good luck with that OP
Gabriel Parker
In my country you can do any primary degree and then do the one year masters. I've been doing creative writing and I'll do the librarian masters when I'm finished with it.

What's your job?
Logan Stewart
it doesn't matter, op wants to be a writer.

It's one of my personal ambitions to become an American Duke of Roxburghe and collect like 10,000 books in a nice home library. And I'm hoping to get old books, unedited, as-they-wer-written books, and make a hobby out of restoring or republishing them.
I started my own business, and have a plan to accomplish this with the earnings I get from it. Before now, it never occurred to me to get a degree.
Jacob Robinson
Here in Australia there are different courses, but I think at a certificate level (which takes a year) you can qualify yourself to become a base level librarian.
Jonathan Cook
You cannot get a job in a library without it.
James Williams
it would be, but it's a government thing, so it will be very slow to adapt to this.
Daniel Carter
I know people with jobs at libraries that do not have it. But who the fuck would want that job anyways, work at a capitalist bookstore, they are better anyways
Dominic Myers
You get paid much more to be a librarian, you work shorter hours, and the job is cushy enough that you can write during working hours.
Sebastian Gray
but you have no soul
Brandon Lee
You realize you have to go to school for 10 years to be a librarian, right? You also can't be a straight white man.

>Masters in Librarian studies We have computers now faggot, the old cunts at the library right now that got a degree before they invented light bulbs can keep their shit until they die but I am writing an email to Trump right now telling him to cut funding for all faggots who want to make big bucks on the government dole just for scanning my fucking books.
Ian Foster
There are so few librarian jobs available, and generally those who get them stay for 30-40 years.
Good luck

Not even joking, suicide is the only option for you.
Liam Clark
lol, what a rich comment
Nolan Cook
Law student here. There are more of them than ever here.
Robert Russell
You know that automated scanners are already in libraries right? And the people that used to scan them were library techs not librarians.
Wyatt Ward
I blame the Legally Blonde franchise. Suddenly, every woman with a 140 LSAT score thought they could be Elle Woods.

Zachary Nguyen
So many Veeky Forums people don't know what a librarian is. Not everyone who works in a library is a librarian. There is a hierarchy: librarian > library technician > library clerk.
