Librarians should keep an eye on Hourly Nerd. This web based platform allows businesses to post projects that need completion and gives current and former MBAs the ability to get in touch with those businesses to help them at a fraction of the cost that a major consulting firm would charge. The library community may want to consider adopting a similar platform for current/former MLS students. Libraries could post their projects and then crowd source to find an MLS librarian who can best assist them. This would also be ideal for internships. Feel free to let me know what you think.
