Work on a Celebrity Cruise ship as a librarian

[linolive]

I work in a library and belong to a regional library listserv. This announcement was recently posted to the listserv. I don't know if the position requires a MLS degree, I would contact Edwin Rojas for more information if you are truly interested in the job.

 

Best,

Linda

 

Dear librarians,

Celebrity Cruise Lines Manager Edwin Rojas contacted me about finding

 

librarians to work on their cruise ships for 6 month stints. Here's

 

what I learned from Edwin (who can correct any mistakes I've made).

 

 

 

You would sign a 6 month contract and you would be assigned to a variety

 

of cruises 7-14 days in length. You would work everyday in the library

 

helping people find leisure reading, get their email, and plan their

 

port activities mostly. You would work everyday, with time off everyday

 

for lunch and dinner and an occasional block of time where you could

 

visit a port. The pay is $1800/month plus room, board, and

 

transportation. After 6 months you can take off 4-12 weeks before

 

signing a new contract. Most librarians work 3-4 contracts. Summer

 

cruises are mostly to Alaska, Baltic, and Europe. Winter mostly to

 

Caribbean, Mexico, and South America.

 

 

 

You need a valid passport and a medical exam. If you are interested, or

 

know someone who might be, send a resume to Edwin below.

 

 

 

Now, doesn't this set you to dreaming?
