Abstract
ABSTRACT This session covered alternate careers for those with MLS degrees. The panelists presented the path their careers took after library school. Most of this group have MLS degrees and have worked in academic libraries. Eventually, they looked for new opportunities to use the skills gained from their library degrees, and found themselves selling books for jobbers and publishers, developing electronic journal management tools, programming systems, converting library systems data for an integrated library system vendor, working as a consortium program director, and working as subscription agents. This lively presentation covered the choices these professionals made, illustrating career opportunities that may exist for anyone interested and willing to strike out in a new direction.
