Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explains how and why to get an international library job, what to expect when you arrive in your host country, and how to overcome challenges in your new home. For those who possess an ALA-accredited degree, there are opportunities to work in library settings around the world—and many of these attractive career options do not require non-English language skills or an EEC/Commonwealth citizenship. This guide to library work in countries outside the United States and Canada explains the benefits of taking on a library position in an international setting, how to find such a job, what to expect in working in a library outside of North America, and what strategies to employ to be successful and happy living and working in your host country. This guide answers all the questions that a librarian considering a position abroad would have, and it also covers subjects and concerns that might not be as obvious. Based on the direct experiences of the authors as well as anecdotal accounts from other librarians who have worked around the world, the book informs readers about common cultural differences with the application and interview process; explains how workplaces and working assumptions can be different from American expectations; profiles the different procedures, collection scope, curricular support, and intellectual freedom policies of libraries outside the United States and Canada; and describes the unique experience of moving to another country and living as an expat.

Book excerpt: Have you ever earnestly prayed for Gods guidance yet heard nothing but silence? Have you fervently prayed for God to help you with a major issue in your life and yet no answer came for you? Have you ever been filled with worry about a problem and it seems that God just stays far away? Yet with no guidance to go on, you and many other people still must make serious life decisions. But they are made with great uncertainty because you dont know if God is with you or will support you in the decision you made. With this new way to pray, any sincere soul will find a way to open up that communication from God so a clear and loud response to your prayer can be heard. If you are honest about wanting an answer to your prayer, and if you are a person who is truly seeking Gods will with real integrity and you are willing to be patient and wait for the Lords reply, here is a way to get your response. Six simple steps are given here to help you state your clear question to God, what to do while you wait for Gods answer, and to know the exact day you will receive Gods reply! This book will tell you precisely what you can do to obtain Gods clear direction with the specific prayer request you lift up. This may seem unbelievable, but the proven results of following these six steps, exactly as presented in this volume, are consistent and reliable in giving you a godly response. And this answer you receive can even be double-checked if you doubt it! The author of this volume has been very slow to publish his findings. He has spent over forty years in researching, refining, testing, and retesting this method so that an answer can come for any sincere soul who is an honest seeker in wanting to make an all-important connection with God. Try it once and discover for yourself exactly what Gods response will be to your sincere prayer request.
