1. Pay for a consultant at two local synagogue libraries is $40/hr. This librarian does not charge for travel time and for a lot of the work done at home. 2. A librarian just out of library school should make at least18/hr ($35,000 a year for 40 hours for 52 weeks). An experienced librarian should be paid at least $25/hr. I'm assuming you mean a professional librarian with a masters degree in library/information science/service? Unfortunately, substandard wages are not uncommon.
