<br>
Hey, don't knock AnTir! :-)<br>
I know you're kidding about your Tacoma comment, but<br>
those Blaitha an Oir folks up there are quite nice and<br>
Pacific LutheranU and Uof Puget Sound would both be<br>
great places to work. They have a new glass museum in<br>
Tacoma (oooo aaaaa).<br>
<br>
My fave site for pacific nw jobs is the PNLA jobs<br>
page:<br>
<a href="http://www.pnla.org/jobs/index.htm" target="_blank">http://www.pnla.org/jobs/index.htm</a><br>
<br>
However, due to UW and Emporia kicking out local grads<br>
on a continual basis and the fact that the PNW has<br>
become a destination moving area, the job market is<br>
tight!<br>
<br>
but your skills are not my skills. You should apply<br>
often and early for openings that you are<br>
passionate/excited about. You never know when your<br>
special talent X will be just the thing your next<br>
library needs, regardless of experience.<br>
<br>
Are you also looking at special libraries?<br>
The local SLA chapter is quite active.<br>
<a href="http://careercenter.sla.org/search/index.cfm" target="_blank">http://careercenter.sla.org/search/index.cfm</a>?<br>
<br>
As someone else suggested, post a link to your resume<br>
so we can see your skills and try to assist in the<br>
right direction.<br>
<br>
Hang in there!<br>
<br>
