MLIS opportunities in school libraries

[Sharon Thompson <thompsonsk@CANADA.COM>]

Hello!
I am a student attending the School of Library and
Information Sciences at the University of Alberta,
Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. I have a Bachelor of
Education and plan to combine these degrees in some
way. However, I am getting the impression that very few
schools in Canada that employ teacher-librarians (due
to budget cuts). I knew that smaller schools had this
problem, but figured larger schools were still able to
hire MLIS grads.
What is the situation out there? Is it the same in the
US? I don't think this is a big problem in
international schools.
Thanks for your insight,
Sharon Thompson
