Research Roles
Academic & Research Librarian:
They work in universities and further education colleges and they provide staff, researchers, and students with access to information needed and teach them skills necessary for conducting research. They do this by training staff and students in information literacy, referencing, literature searching, and copyright laws.
Skills required: collection management, cataloging, and classification (typical librarian skills).
Formal qualifications aren’t usually needed with many academic libraries advertising graduate trainee roles. For senior positions, a postgraduate qualification in library and information science is normally required. Many employers also look for CILIP chartership (professional registration chartership) or a willingness to work towards it.
Market research data analyst:
They study statistics and information collected through surveys.
