Dear Readers,
The time has come for me to say goodbye to both you and this blog, at least for now. As many of you know this has been a completely volunteer effort with the goal being to encourage librarians from everywhere to travel and work beyond their borders. I spent fourteen years of my life doing just that and it enriched and expanded me both personally and professionally. While I still completely believe in this mission, it is time for me to focus on other goals in my life, although I am not yet clear exactly what will be next…
This blog will continue to be hosted and available as searching the archives can be useful when researching potential positions. I will also continue to update my book: How to Become a Traveling Librarian as well as the Book Resources page.
I wish everyone, as always, safe travels.
Kind regards, Sarah P.
The Traveling Librarian

Thank you for maintaining this blog, Sarah. It was such a source of inspiration. I actually applied for several jobs posted on here and even interviewed for one in Palau! Nothing came about it, but it was an experience in and of itself. I also had purchased your e-book which is so helpful. You’ve really inspired this wanderlust librarian and showed how this field can be exciting and universal. Best wishes on your next adventure and thanks again!

I have to say, I was sorry to see this announcement, but not really surprised. What a massive amount of time and effort this must have taken! I am setting up a web site on teaching in the international schools and admire your organization of this site, as well as it currency. Very accessible (you’re a librarian, after all).
All the best on the next chapter of your life and thank you for this blog. It appears at least a few librarians have had their lives changed thanks to your encouragement!
