Abstract
degree in librarianship, that does not have to be the case. As a mid-career library professional, you may feel like you have reached a point at which you don’t know where to go.
If you have decided that management is not for you right now, yet you still want to grow,
a doctorate can stretch you and help you to gain more knowledge, research expertise,
and leadership skills. Pursuing and accomplishing this goal will open career possibilities,
including promotion, administration, and teaching positions in library schools where you
could help effect change in librarianship by educating future librarians.
