Library Staff Licensing Pathways
Librarian certification, or licensure, is the state’s way of career gatekeeping to ensure only competent and trustworthy individuals are allowed to work in these positions. In Kentucky, both school librarians and public librarians are required to possess certification prior to employment. However, even for academic, medical, and most other types of librarians, a masters degree in Library and Information Science is an entry-level requirement for hiring managers.
