| Summary or Abstract
|
:
|
There is currently a shortage of academic librarians in the United States. This shortage is affecting staffing levels at libraries and making it increasingly difficult to fill positions. There are several explanations for this trend including (1) a large number of academic librarians are retiring, (2) competition from business and technology firms, (3) a decrease in graduate schools that award the Master's degree in library science (MLS), and (4) women are going into a much wider variety of careers and are leaving a shortage in occupations such as teaching, nursing, and librarianship..
