What is the title of librarian?

Libraries belong to public institutions, and their professional titles take the route of professional and technical posts. From low to high, it is assistant librarian (junior title), librarian (intermediate title), deputy research librarian and research librarian (senior title).

To evaluate the professional title of librarians, it is generally necessary to have the title of assistant librarian first. On this basis, the following conditions must be met:

1, worked for a certain number of years. This different library has different requirements, which are linked to academic qualifications. For example, some libraries that require graduate students to obtain the title of assistant librarian for two years can apply for librarian evaluation. Ph.D. graduates can skip the assistant librarian level and apply for librarian evaluation directly when they get their Ph.D.

2. Have certain scientific research ability. This may require published papers (generally related to library work), and may also require taking the intermediate title examination of library and information science at or above the municipal level. It depends on the requirements of different libraries.

3. Pass the English test for professional titles. This is generally a test, and only those who have graduated from Ph.D., studied abroad or published English papers can be exempted from the test. The examination results of English for professional titles are valid for 4 years, and you can take the examination before the expiration of the examination period. I signed up for the exam myself. You can go to China Examination Network and other websites to check the registration notice.

Generally speaking, the evaluation of librarians' professional titles is to meet the three conditions of years, professional English and scientific research ability, and then the evaluation is organized by the unit. Of course, different libraries may have their own special requirements, but these requirements should be open and documented.
