The recommended salaries quoted are guideline figures, and do not represent any particular salary scale or the sums paid by any particular institution.
Posts in some areas may be graded to recognise local labour market conditions. However, CILIP recommends that all posts should be graded according to the level of responsibility they bear and the level of qualification, skill and experience required.
Posts requiring the employment of a Chartered Librarian should be graded to provide a salary of no less than £23500.
The salary bands do not take into account special allowances such as London Weighting or other benefits.
