We are inundated with information every day. Someone needs to know how to sort out what's relevant, important and accurate - and how to organize and present it in a way that makes sense. That's where the "information professional" come in. 

Information professionals are in demand in every sector of our society - from local schools and public libraries to government offices and major corporations, online and in person. 

What is the career outlook for librarians and other information professionals? What kinds of jobs are available, and where do you find them? What kind of education does it take to succeed in this field?
