I’m currently doing a course through Univ of Chicago but I don’t love the structure of it and am wondering if that’s just how things are with online classes or if anywhere else has a different approach. We get our assignments for the week and just have to work through those on our own before any of the material is presented by the instructor. Then in the weekly Zoom we go over it all. It’s definitely not the best way for me to learn and I’m wondering if a different program might be a better fit. Does anyone know if any of the other programs present material in synchronous meetings ahead of assignments?

Just came across this listing and was excited to see something full time, then I read the description and almost everything on the list is something that was handled exclusively by librarians with MLIS degrees at my old library. I have been an assistant (granted in circulation) but feel vastly underqualified for this (though I’m sure there are folks out there without an MLIS who could do it). Am I wrong in thinking this sounds more like the job description for a librarian than an assistant?

He will be covering Oliver, James, AND Gil!!!
