National Qualification Librarian (Librarian)
It's a job that produces the contents of the library. It's not just a book-lending operation. There are many types of work that librarians do, such as advice on how to find books, advice, and event planning.
A "love of books plus a love of people" is a prerequisite.
図書館の仕事について、専門的に勉強した人に与えられる資格が司書である。司書の主な仕事場は、町の公共図書館や学校の図書室だ。そのほか、民間で運営している専門図書館で働いている司書もいる。司書の仕事は単に「本が好き！」というだけでは務まらない。本の貸し出し手続きや本の整理だけでなく、おススメの本をアピールしたり、イベントや講演会を企画するなどの仕事もある。
本のすばらしさを「みんなに伝えたい！」という気持ちと、その気持ちをうまく利用者に伝える
コミュニケーション能力が必要だ。「図書館司書は本のセールスマンです」と言う司書もいるぐらいなので、実は行動的なタイプのほうが向いている職業といえるかもしれない。
Open up the future of libraries with computer technology in mind!
And, of course, knowledge as a "book expert" is essential. Although there are cases where one can work in a library without librarian certification, specialized study for certification is useful for the job. In recent years, library work, such as book registration and information retrieval, has become increasingly computerized, so it is important to acquire such skills as well.
How can we help as many people as possible to enjoy reading? New ideas are expected.
Those who want to become librarians should first practice telling their friends about interesting books and movies in an easy-to-understand way when they come across them.
