A librarian is associated with collection and arrangement of Books. In this digital era, we organize the information, technically and also we play a multiple role in assisting the users. As we all under one group, our role and responsibilities are almost similar.  I would like to know, the difference between Academic Librarian/Corporate Librarian/University Librarian/School Librarian/Special Librarians, etc. Also I wanted to know whether those differences makes any particular identity? And does it have any special standards or certification to update in these different sectors? If so, kindly post your information.
