How much do librarians make in Germany?

I suspect it depends on the type of librarianship you do. Academic and special librarians (i.e., corporate librarians) tend to make more than public librarians. Also, a librarian in Berlin may make mroe than a librarian in a smaller town. \n\nLISJobs.com has an international jobs site with two German job posting sites:\n\nhttp://www.lisjobs.com/nonus.htm\n\nI can't read german, so i can't tell you what I see.\n\nThe IFLA (International federation of Library Associations and Institutions) web site does not have any information. \n\nThis web site:\n\nhttp://www.salariesreview.com/index.cfm?FuseAction=Home.Main&TrkId=479-82\n\nhas international salary information for sale ($19) but does not specify whether librarian salaries are included.\n\nA final iea would be to check this web site:\n\nhttp://lists.webjunction.org/libweb/Germany.html\n\nfor a listing of German libraries. If you e-mail a few german librarians, they might have better resources at hand. \n\nFinally, I would siggest that you investigate benefits packages as well. Good retirement or health care benefits can mitigate the disappointment of a low salary.

I am a librarian, and the absolute best place to find accurate, current salary information for all jobs is the Unityed States Department of Labor's "Occupational Outlook Handbook 2006-2007." Here is what it says about firefighters' salaries (click here for a full job description http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos158.htm):\n\nMedian hourly earnings of fire fighters were $18.43 in May 2004. The middle 50 percent earned between $13.65 and $24.14. The lowest 10 percent earned less than $9.71, and the highest 10 percent earned more than $29.21. Median hourly earnings were $18.78 in local government, $17.34 in the Federal Government, and $14.94 in State government.\n\nMedian annual earnings of first-line supervisors/managers of fire fighting and prevention workers were $58,920 in May 2004. The middle 50 percent earned between $46,880 and $72,600. The lowest 10 percent earned less than $36,800, and the highest 10 percent earned more than $90,860. First-line supervisors/managers of fire fighting and prevention workers employed in local government earned about $60,800 a year.\n\nMedian annual earnings of fire inspectors and investigators were $46,340 in May 2004. The middle 50 percent earned between $36,030 and $58,260 a year. The lowest 10 percent earned less than $28,420, and the highest 10 percent earned more than $71,490. Fire inspectors and investigators employed in local government earned about $48,020 a year.\n\nAccording to the International City-County Management Association, average salaries in 2004 for sworn full-time positions were as follows:\n\n(Minimum annual base salary to Maximum annual base salary) \n      \nFire chief-- $68,701 to $89,928 \nDeputy chief-- $63,899 to $79,803 \nAssistant fire chief-- $57,860 to $73,713 \nBattalion chief-- $58,338 to $73,487 \nFire captain-- $49,108 to $59,374 \nFire lietenant-- $44,963 to $53,179 \nFire prevention/code inspector-- $43,297 to $54,712 \nEngineer-- $41,294 to $52,461 \n\nFire fighters who average more than a certain number of hours a week are required to be paid overtime. The hours threshold is determined by the department during the fire fighter’s work period, which ranges from 7 to 28 days. Fire fighters often earn overtime for working extra shifts to maintain minimum staffing levels or for special emergencies.\n\nFire fighters receive benefits that usually include medical and liability insurance, vacation and sick leave, and some paid holidays. Almost all fire departments provide protective clothing (helmets, boots, and coats) and breathing apparatus, and many also provide dress uniforms. Fire fighters generally are covered by pension plans, often providing retirement at half pay after 25 years of service or if the individual is disabled in the line of duty.

Depends on the location of course, but the median paid to lawyers employed by local government is $80,840 a year.\n\nEdit: DAs are called State's Attorneys in Illinois, for some unknown reason. Assistant state's attorneys in Cook County start at $43,222 a year. The State's Attorney himself, who is elected, makes $160,000.

A pitiful 15,000 to 18,000 (USD) a year.  It's only when you get serious seniority that the pay rolls in.\n\nSee the Salon article listed below for more information.

Depends on where in the country they work.  Where I live about thirty dollars an hour

I'm not sure about the actual salary.  If you're writing for a newspaper column, it depends on the popularity of the newspaper and how popular your particular column is.  For books, I think authors get a cut of the sales and an advance at the start more so than paid a salary.

It really depends on what area you live in - and whether it's rural or urban. And whether you work directly for the employer, are self-employed, or contracted. \n\nI've never heard of a "virtual" admin support, so I couldn't really say on that. But I've seen bookkeepers make between $8-13/hr direct hire, and $20-25/hr self-employed. Computer tech technicians tend to get good money, unless you're in a remote area - usually in the $15-20/hr+ range direct hire. Computer tech & computer clean-up & organization would be great contractual or self-employment work if you have a solid foundation in computers. \n\nIf you work direct hire, you will be making less then if you were self-employed. But as a self-employed person, you are responsible for your own Federal & State taxes, unemployment tax, workman's comp, and other bennies. So the $20/hr listed above, actually is much less take home.

There is no German Mark any longer. They use the Euro. But if there were, it would be about $1.00= 1.53 marks.

It sure isn't entry level... I'm an assistant media planner and I don't make a whole lot. I have a friend who is a media planner in Chicago and she makes around $70k, another is a brand planner and he makes a ton.

You won't be able to be a librarian (that requires a Bachelor's degree and a Master's of Library Science) but they might hire you to shelve books.  My local library will hire people as young as fourteen to shelve books (outside of school hours).  From there you might be able to work your way up to a position at the Circulation Desk (signing books in and out).
