Many colleges and universities off bachelor degrees in library/information science, or some derivative subject area, but in order to get a job as a librarian in any type of library here in the United States, it is necessary to obtain a Masters degree in library/information science from an ALA (American Library Associated) accredited program. The substance of these programs often varies--some may focus on the library science aspect, while others put a stronger emphasis on information science and technology--and the names of the degrees often differ from one university to another (some are called MSLIS, or Masters of Science in Library and Info Science, some are MLIS--Masters of Library and Info Science--, while others are called Masters of Arts in Library and Info Science, or M.A. in LIS), but they all cover the same basic information and are considered imperative for employment as a librarian. If you are interested in finding a school nearby that offers a Masters degree as described above, check of the ALA website, specifically http://www.ala.org/ala/accreditation/lisdirb/lisdirectory.cfm for more information and detailed descriptions of the education process and requirements of each accredited program. Good luck!
