Unfortunately so. I also have a list of things I learned in library school. The first one is "how to give presentations to a group of people". It seemed that EVERY class had a presentation you had to do. This, however, was useful as I learned after awhile how not to get nervous in front of a group. The second and third things were useful to me personally, but not professionally. They were: "how to drink cheap beer" and "how to drink bad coffee". Too true, too true! Unfortunately so.

I think the majority of what is learned about libraries comes from on the job training. Some do not need to get the masters, some definitely do. Thanks for sharing.

This just about sums up my experience in library school as well. Sad but true. While I read this post I just kept nodding my head and saying Yep!
