Aside from the obvious librarian and editor, what other careers exist for people who LOVE to read?

Journalism, writer, lawyer, teacher, soldier. (I had lots of time to read when I was a soldier.)

You could be a publisher, critic, or a proof reader. Maybe you could be a professional story teller, I know some people who make that their career. Teachers are always needed, and there is no one better to show children the joys of reading than someone who loves reading themselves. If you don't want to teach, a tutor or a mentor would be good. There are multiple avenues you could chose to incorporate your love of reading into a career.

I was thinking some that have been said, publisher, researcher, legal, book critic. Here's a new one - how about translator? You have to know a second language obviously but you definitely get to read. Another one is transcriber, but it is hard to make a living at, I did that a little for awhile.

Paralegal. They read tons of stuff.
Researcher in any field. To keep up-to-date on the latest, you have to read a bunch.
