Being a librarian would be the only degree worth holding my interest, but since books are sadly becoming a thing of the past on a more daily basis (and I live in a small town with more librarians than the ever shrinking library budget), I might as well just throw my money into an endless pit than purse it.
At least I'm not bitter.
You don't necessarily need a degree in library science to work in a library. I don't have one (my degrees are in Humanities, Sociology, Theater Arts, and Social and Behavioral Sciences). I am classified as a library clerk (but because I run my own library, sans assistance except for the students I am assigned each semester, I do the work of a librarian).
