Hi Everyone!

I have an interview tomorrow for an elementary librarian position. Prior to teaching, I worked in a public library for four years as a reference assistant, but I do not have any experience in an elementary library and was hoping you guys might have some tips or advice for me.

What kinds of questions do you think they'll ask me? What are some typical responsibilities of an elementary librarian? I'm in Texas, by the way, if that makes a difference.

Thanks in advance!
ellen I would imagine they would ask you about children's books and making recommendations to young readers. I'm actually trying to find out the best children's books for elementary. I taught middle school for 2 years, so I need to do some younger reading.

Good luck to you!

Jellybeans Thanks! I have been teaching middle school for the last two years, so I am a little rusty on my children's books, but I did work in the children's department of a library for a few years, so hopefully I should be okay with a little bit of review :)
