Comments
Yes, most of us have a field that we really adore so those who work in universities/colleges research and write academic papers just like professors/instructors.
We collaborate with professors/instructors to find resources for the development of courses and teach information literacy classes. Public librarians teach useful skills to older generations and immigrants like filing taxes online, teach kids how to find correct information, and act as community archives.
