Hello,


I am looking for a job/experience in a library or in a museum.

Could You tell me how the situation looks for people who are looking for work in a library without librarian education (I am studying knowledge about culture). I know how to deal with computer ( I know Microsoft Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Desktop Publishing, Corel Draw), have experience in customer service.

Is it unusal, or quite common to find in my situation work in a library . What chance would someone have to find a job in this field.

Thank U,
Dagmar
