[1] How many librarians does a typical high school have? Is it just one librarian per high school library or can it be multiple librarians working in a high school library? [2] What is the typical schedule for a high school library? In other words, what time do librarians job start and end? [3] Do high school library allow students to aid librarian? For instance, in most high schools, there are what’s called office aide where students aid office staffs such as counselors. Is there a library aide class for students to help the librarian?

Wow after having followed different careers (from teaching to being in the corporate world), and now at home with my daughter, I think if I ever have an opportunity to work again, I would love to be a librarian. I love books and just think it must be amazing to be in such an environment where you have some (but minimal) interaction with people, and so many books to keep you company. I assume you like your job? All the best.

I'm on page 200 and are struggling to find motivation to continue. I usually give a book until page 60 or 80 before deciding whether to continue. For this book , I continued because the world is interesting (I would like to live in a world where there is a mysterious door which leads to a mysterious place), however, it feels as if it is going nowhere....after 200 pages...

My first job was as a High School media assistant. It was fun and I feel that I did a good job. Should have tried to stay in this part of the library field. Public Libraries did not work for me because it was an inner city situation. Became a museum professional and a classroom teacher. You have a good attitude and it would have been good to work with you.

"As Good As Dead" is an incredible book! I have taught 6th grade for the past 6 years. This past year, several of my students read the series along with me. I assigned a reading project choice board and one of my students created a diorama of the crime scene in this book. It was so creative. However, I had not got to this part of the book yet. Definite spoiler alert! I agree that this book is 5 stars. I have stopped teaching because I am starting my first year as a school librarian in August!!! I love your channel and enjoy your videos!

It's hard to say... I really loved book 3 of the new books (Blood Communion), but I didn't care for Prince Lestat and the Realms of Atlantis. Prince Lestat was somewhere in the middle for me. I still recommend reading them though! It was also a different scenario for me. I had to wait so many years to get Prince Lestat that it made so exciting to have a new book out! Without that hype now, I'm not sure I would have loved it as much.
