Are you a librarian struggling with the job search?

The job market has never been more competitive for librarians and info pros like us — but now that you’ve found me, you don’t have to do it alone.

Long hours. Low pay. Lack of advancement. Book challenge and hostile political climate. Safety concerns. No work/life balance. The list goes on and on, but there are plenty of reasons you want to leave your job and find something that works better for you. I’ve been there, and I’ve come out on the the other side. Now, I want to help you find a job that works for you.

Transform your resume
into a marketing tool

Land more interviews
(either in or out of Library Land)

Stand out
in the saturated market–so you’re not just another LIS worker.

Land a job
you actually want–quicker than you could on your own.

Most people spend about 1/3 of their life at work.

Do you really want to waste time in your library/LIS job that is unfulfilling, frustrating, or toxic?

Many library folks will just settle and give up before they start. They figure:

  • “Who would even want to hire me?”
  • “The LIS market is just too saturated.”
  • “Leaving would be too much of a risk.”
  • “Sure, it’s bad here. But it’s probably just as bad anywhere else.”
  • “I can’t leave my colleagues or patrons behind, so I’ll just stay.”
  • “I can’t imagine what I would do besides work in libraries.”
  • “Maybe it will be better once my bad boss retires in a couple of years…”

These thoughts keep you stuck. I’m here to get you un-stuck.

Here’s the solution
to finding a job your love.

Contact Alison to inquire about creating your own custom package. Any four services can be combined into a package with significant savings.

Alison did a great job helping me define my personal brand while undergoing a career pivot. She helped elevate my resume and cover letter by illustrating how my transferable skills add value and solve pain points in my new target role/industry. She has a collaborative approach and was very responsive to any questions I had along the way. After being out of the job market for quite some time, Alison made the process much smoother! I can now focus my energy on job searching and networking. I would highly recommend her services to anyone going through a career transition.
