Get rich - work in public libraries

Those of us who don't work in the public library service will have our breath taken away by this advertisement for some posts in a library authority.

This particular authority spends less than 4% of its funding on books--

- Head of Libraries (£54,312-£61,689)
- Information Services & Adult Learning Manager (£37,416)
- Customer Services Manager (£37,416)
- Project & Development Manager (£34,962)

Of course none of these posts require the onerous obligation of standing at a counter, they are all office jobs. Croydon is the place and I know this information will break the hearts of the doughty fighters for Upper Norwood Library for which Croydon council refused to find proper funding.
