Outlook
Employment for librarians who work in legal services is expected to increase by nearly 6 percent from 2023 through 2033, according to the U.S. Department of Labor. This is faster than the average for all careers. Librarians who stay up to date with the latest technology and education in the field, as well with as trends in the legal industry, will have the best employment prospects.
The use of generative artificial intelligence (AI) has eliminated some lower-level job duties for law librarians, but it has also allowed them to focus on higher-level tasks. The potential positive and negative effects of generative AI on the work of law librarians are still not fully known.
