A librarian a professional library worker. In most cases, a librarian holds at least a Master's degree in Library Science from an ALA-accredited library school. He or she may have additional degrees.

A librarian is trained in information organization and retrieval, and will often have specialized training in a particular type of library or function: cataloging, special collections (rare books and archives), reference, systems, school library, public library administration, law etc.

The individuals checking out books in a library may or may not be librarians. The individuals staffing the reference desk most likely will be.
