I Chartered in 2007. I think that being a chartered librarian has really helped my career, particularly as I didn't do a first degree in Library Studies (mine was Social Sciences. I know, for a fact, that I would not have even been interviewed for my current role, unless I had been professionally qualified).
That said, I am aware that a number of my colleagues in the library hold Masters level qualifications - and I don't. Feeling somewhat inadequate (and particularly as I am expected to support Masters level students in my day job) I have enrolled on a taught Masters course (in History! - well, I thought I might as well do something I would really enjoy - half the battle etc.). Luckily, with my job, I was able to enrol for free - so I have no excuses really.
