Even though each institution has it's own mission and it's patrons have their own characteristics, the Extra-Help Librarian category has similarities among locations. Therefore, this book focuses on their professional profile and work issues in these library settings. It is geared to anyone interested in pursuing a Library Science degree, to students and recent graduates and to professors in this field. In addition, retired librarians and those between jobs or re-entering the job market could benefit from the book's content.
