A questionnaire survey was conducted to determine why librarians found themselves working in sci-tech library positions. Open-ended questions were included in the survey to solicit personal opinions and anecdotes regarding the choice of sci-tech librarianship. Three hundred eleven responses were received. Approximately 60% of the respondents indicated that they had some type of science background before becoming sci-tech librarians. Fifty-seven percent of the total pool replied that they intended to become sci-tech librarians from the start. Reasons for this choice are discussed, along with perceived expectations about sci-tech librarianship. This article builds upon a previous discussion of findings from this questionnaire, found in College and Research Libraries, v. 61 n. 5 (September 2000). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
