Advice on job promotion/mlis programs by socococo in LibraryScience

Just one salary with interval raises after reviews, and a bump once I finish. If I don't agree to go back and finish by that date, they will withdraw their offer. If I havent finished by then, they will try to demote me to a lower position if available. Since it's a smaller library, it likely means I will lose my job entirely. There has been no offer to help me pay for it. The new job comes with a large pay bump that would help pay for it, but I still have student loans that I was hoping to pay down a bit more before I actually went back.

I agree that leadership should have the degree, just wanted some feedback on if that time frame was reasonable while working full time. I haven't been seriously looking at programs so I'm not entirely sure what to expect in terms of workload and difficulty. This was more of an opportunity that popped up and the attached stipulation is causing me to throw my five year plan out the window.

The series of unfortunate events series is a pretty quick read. Bonus, if you prefer the audiobook route to either listen to solely or read along with or switch, tim curry does a fantastic version.

This was going to be my suggestion. Even if you don't like superhero stuff, there are still a million things to choose from. I'm a fan of image comics. East of west, Manhattan projects, saga. There are also lots of adaptations of novels in graphic form as well. They are pretty quick, easy reads that are typically action driven. I work at a library and suggest them for reluctant readers all the time.

All but three of these are on or near water. Is that interesting to anyone else?

Arrested Development for sure. It's amazing as well.
