As an ex-Newbury resident (in the 60s & early 70s) I remember that Thatcham
was considered very much down market & pretty cheap in terms of housing.

Yes but did you look at house prices in this neck of the woods ...

Just checked lisjobnet & discovered that there are no vacancies currently in
Scotland. Checked the Academic/School vacancies & found one in a school in
Berkshire, offering £23 -£27 K (which seems not bad to me), & you don't even
have to be qualified ("A professional qualification will be an advantage.")!

I too was busy over the weekend and (as well as digging my allotment) I dug
out a book called What else you can do with a library degree which my
parents had bought in the states many years ago.  Among the suggestions are:

Publisher 
Editor 
Book reviewer
Owning a book shop
Public relations
Storytelling
Administration - arts, education etc
Community action and advocacy

Others like indexing, working for library suppliers etc were more
predictable.

Strangely all in sectors that are unlikely to pay well - unless you are a
budding Max Clifford ...

Having thought hard about it over the weekend (and having narrowly missed
apprehension gyrating around a bus stop), sadly I admit that what I would
most like to do is to run my own second-hand bookshop/junk shop/coffee
shop/internet cafe type of establishment.

But I wouldn't serve anyone unless I liked the look of them.

Glad to see this discussion continuing on a Monday morning! For what's it's
worth I have been training, alongside part-time day job, as a psychodynamic
counsellor (involving college days and a clinical placement)and am now in
the final year of the MSc. For financial reasons already touched on it
probably wouldn't be possible to do this full time and as I am still very
interested in the library and information profession am thinking I would
like to develop a hybrid/portfolio career involving the two strands
together.


Re pole dancing, I did a class at my gym last summer but they haven't
introduced it generally and I think it got a mixed reception. It was
difficult to learn it properly when it turned out we had to share a pole
with 4 others!

Good heavens, Joanne, you must be on an enormous salary (or jazzercise
instructors are paid near the minimum wage) - if I re-trained as a masseur I
could earn at least 3 times my current hourly rate - & that's without
offering 'extras'  ;-)

Well I have been a Jazzercise instructor in the past but to earn enough to
do it full-time I would have to teach a million classes a week!! Never tried
pole-dancing (except down the pub after a few - don't ask)...

As an adjunct to poor Fiona having to look for a new job, I'd love to know
if anyone knows of any librarians who have left the profession completely
and what careers they went to?

I don't mean the obvious IT/knowledge management sort of things but
something completely different e.g librarian to psychologist

thanks
