Best Answer

An assistant librarian is a specific job title with certain responsibilities and authority, more senior to a library assistant, who may or may not be an employee. A library assistant is someone who helps out in a library. The assistant librarian has a more senior role, second only to the chief librarian. So they would be much more involved in the practicalities of how the library is run. The library assistant would be involved in the more basic tasks like checking books in and out with members of the library, or putting books back on the shelves.
