What are the educational requirements to be a law librarian?

The overwhelming majority of those working as law librarians have a graduate degree in library and information science. Most jobs require a master's degree from an American Library Association (ALA)-accredited institution. The names of the degrees vary: MLS, MLIS, MSIS, for instance, but all reflect an appropriate entry-level educational requirement for careers in the law librarianship profession.
