Specialties that pay more

• Cataloguing and metadata

  The technical core of the field, and harder to automate than people think.

• Electronic resources

  Managing databases, ebooks and licences for a whole system.

• Law or hospital libraries

  Small, specialized, better paid, and they want accuracy above all.

• Archives and local history

  Handling records and donations, often with extra short courses.
