WageScope divides the published Library Technicians median by the BEA all-items index. This is a price-level comparison, not take-home pay, a personal budget, or a quality-of-life score.
Use the local pay range, same-source bench marks, job scale, price level, and survey care marks as separate facts. This guide stays tied to SOC 25-4031 and BLS area 46.

What the Library Technicians median says in South Dakota
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Library Technicians median in South Dakota at $29,590 per year. Median means the middle of the published wage spread. It is not one worker's pay. It is not a job offer. The row is tied to SOC 25-4031 and BLS area 46.
BLS lists 650 wage and salary jobs for this exact role-place row. That is a survey estimate. It is not a count of open posts. The local mean is $33,950 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
South Dakota's Library Technicians median is 33.6% below the U.S. Library Technicians median of $44,580 on the same published median. The comparison uses the same SOC code and source period. It does not add price levels, taxes, benefits, hours, or a person's work history.
This page exists because the BLS artifact has one row for SOC 25-4031 and area 46. SOC 25-4031 names Library Technicians. Area 46 names South Dakota. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 25-4031/46 row reports 650 wage and salary jobs, 1.41 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 3.2 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 25-4031/46, the annual median is $29,590 per year, while the matching mean is $33,950 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
BLS area 46 facts behind this Library Technicians page
Area 46 reports 457,380 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $57,610. Its annual median is $47,080. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.3%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 25-4031 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in South Dakota runs from $29,300 at the 10th percentile to $94,900 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $36,030. The median is $47,080. The 75th percentile is $64,020. This is a place check, not a pay range for Library Technicians.
The source rows below are the six largest detailed roles in the bounded area file. Each keeps its own SOC code. They help a reader spot-check area 46. They do not show related skills or a path into Library Technicians.
1. Area 46, SOC 35-3023, Fast Food and Counter Workers: 15,150 jobs, $29,490 annual median, 33.11 jobs per 1,000, and 1.34 location quotient.
2. Area 46, SOC 29-1141, Registered Nurses: 14,710 jobs, $78,060 annual median, 32.17 jobs per 1,000, and 1.48 location quotient.
3. Area 46, SOC 41-2031, Retail Salespersons: 14,180 jobs, $34,370 annual median, 31.01 jobs per 1,000, and 1.24 location quotient.
Pay range
Read the South Dakota wage ladder for Library Technicians
The 10th percentile is $26,060 per year. The 25th percentile is $26,980 per year. The median is $29,590 per year. The 75th percentile is $37,980 per year. The 90th percentile is $47,600 per year.
A percentile is a rank point, not a career stage. The 10th percentile does not mean new-worker pay. The 90th percentile does not mean a wage that comes after a set number of years. The points show how the wage values spread in the source. They do not say why one job sits at one point.
The middle half runs from $26,980 per year to $37,980 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $21,540. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
South Dakota has a annual median of $29,590 per year. No exact state row is linked for this area. The U.S. row has $44,580 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
A state comparison is not available for South Dakota. South Dakota is 33.6% below the United States on the same published median. A gap can reflect many things that are not in this row. WageScope reports the gap but does not name a cause.
The state and U.S. rows are bench marks, not replacements. They do not fill missing local facts. A state can hold many local labor markets. A national row can hold many states. Read the local row first, then use the broader rows to see scale.
South Dakota ranks 48 of 52 among states and territories with a published annual median for Library Technicians. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 48 of 52 is not a place score. A small wage gap can move a row several spots. The rank does not add local prices, job count, concentration, commute, taxes, or work rules. Use it only to find where the published median falls inside this like-for-like set.
The nearby rows below are the closest ranks, not chosen cities. Their pay, job counts, and local shares can differ. Open a peer page before making a deeper comparison. A title and one number are not enough for a move or pay choice.
45. Michigan has a Library Technicians median of $34,680 per year, 2,180 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.12.
46. Idaho has a Library Technicians median of $34,510 per year, 520 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.37.
47. West Virginia has a Library Technicians median of $30,300 per year, 280 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.91.
49. Oklahoma has a Library Technicians median of $29,440 per year, 830 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.1.
Pay leaders
Where Library Technicians medians lead among states and territories
The rows below use the same SOC 25-4031, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same state map type. Washington has the highest published median in this set, at $62,570 per year. South Dakota sits at $29,590 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Library Technicians is in the local mix. It also does not add local prices. The bullets keep the median, job count, and location quotient together so a high wage is not read as a full market score.
Use this list to choose a deeper pair, not to choose a place. Open the two local pages. Check the full wage ladder, the job scale, the survey care marks, and the exact BEA price row when present. A missing median stays out of this rank instead of becoming zero.
1. Washington has a Library Technicians median of $62,570 per year, or $32,980 above South Dakota. BLS lists 1,850 jobs there, compared with 650 in South Dakota. The location quotient is 1.18.
2. District of Columbia has a Library Technicians median of $61,040 per year, or $31,450 above South Dakota. BLS lists 390 jobs there, compared with 650 in South Dakota. The location quotient is 1.27.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Library Technicians jobs
California has the largest published state job estimate for Library Technicians in this same-source set, at 7,190 jobs. South Dakota has 650. The count shows covered job scale, not open posts.
A large job base can have a lower median than a smaller one. It can also have a location quotient near or below 1. That is why WageScope does not blend job count, pay, and local share. Each field keeps its name and unit. The rows below let you compare all three without making one score.
Current MeritLog listings can add a dated view of employer-title matches. They do not change this May 2025 order. A place with few current cards can still have a large BLS job estimate. A place with several cards can still have a smaller estimate. The sources use different clocks and scopes.
1. California has 7,190 estimated Library Technicians jobs, a gap of 6,540 jobs from South Dakota. Its median is $53,260 per year, or $23,670 above South Dakota. Its location quotient is 0.89.
2. Texas has 5,180 estimated Library Technicians jobs, a gap of 4,530 jobs from South Dakota. Its median is $38,640 per year, or $9,050 above South Dakota. Its location quotient is 0.83.
3. Ohio has 4,020 estimated Library Technicians jobs, a gap of 3,370 jobs from South Dakota. Its median is $37,920 per year, or $8,330 above South Dakota. Its location quotient is 1.64.
Local-share leaders
Where Library Technicians takes the largest share of local jobs
South Dakota has the highest published location quotient in this state set, at 3.2. South Dakota has 3.2. A value above 1 means the role's local job share is larger than its national share.
A high quotient can come from a small local job base. It does not prove more jobs, more posts, faster growth, or higher pay. The bullets keep each quotient beside its BLS job count and median. This lets a reader see when the three measures point in different ways.
Use this list to ask where Library Technicians is a large part of the local mix. Use the employment list to ask where BLS counts the most jobs. Use the pay list to ask where the median is highest. None of those lists decides where a person should work.
1. South Dakota has a location quotient of 3.2, a gap of 0.00 from South Dakota. BLS lists 650 Library Technicians jobs and a median of $29,590 per year, or $0 above South Dakota.
2. Wyoming has a location quotient of 3.19, a gap of 0.01 from South Dakota. BLS lists 400 Library Technicians jobs and a median of $26,850 per year, or $2,740 below South Dakota.
3. Wisconsin has a location quotient of 2.22, a gap of 0.98 from South Dakota. BLS lists 2,890 Library Technicians jobs and a median of $35,000 per year, or $5,410 above South Dakota.
Job scale and share
How common Library Technicians is in South Dakota
BLS lists 650 Library Technicians jobs in South Dakota. It also lists 1.41 jobs per 1,000 local jobs. Jobs per 1,000 turns the count into a rate. It helps compare places of different size. It does not show open posts or hiring speed.
The location quotient is 3.2. A value of 1 means Library Technicians has the same share of local jobs as it has across the nation. This row is higher than 1. The quotient is a share check, not a wage or a growth measure.
Read the three values as separate facts. Employment asks how many covered jobs BLS estimated. Jobs per 1,000 asks how much of the local job base the role takes. Location quotient asks how that share compares with the national share. None of them tells you how many posts are open today.
Library Technicians beside other roles in South Dakota
The all-occupations median in South Dakota is $47,080 per year. The Library Technicians median is $29,590 per year. Library Technicians is 37.1% below the local all-occupations median on the same published median. This compares one role with the full covered job mix.
The nearby role medians below come from the bounded detailed-role table for South Dakota. They are close by wage, not by task. A small wage gap does not mean two jobs need the same skill or lead to the same career. Official titles keep their own SOC codes and source rows.
Use the list to spot the local wage mix around Library Technicians. Then open the role page you mean. A role can have a similar median and a very different job count or local share. The pay number alone cannot show fit, demand, or a path between jobs.
1. Fast Food and Counter Workers, SOC 35-3023, has a South Dakota median of $29,490 per year. BLS lists 15,150 jobs and a location quotient of 1.34.
2. Bartenders, SOC 35-3011, has a South Dakota median of $29,400 per year. BLS lists 3,930 jobs and a location quotient of 1.77.
3. Cashiers, SOC 41-2011, has a South Dakota median of $29,780 per year. BLS lists 12,860 jobs and a location quotient of 1.41.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in South Dakota
Fast Food and Counter Workers is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded South Dakota table, at 15,150 jobs. Library Technicians has 650 jobs in its exact role-place row. The two counts show where this role sits beside other large parts of the local job base.
The all-occupations job count is 457,380. The detailed list below is only a bounded view of that larger mix. It does not sum to every local job. It does not include a blank role as zero. It helps explain why one role's wage and job count should not stand in for the whole area.
A large role can have a lower median. A smaller role can have a higher one. Job count does not show current posts, job quality, or growth. Use the list to see local scale. Then keep Library Technicians's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Fast Food and Counter Workers has 15,150 jobs in South Dakota, a gap of 14,500 from Library Technicians. Its median is $29,490 per year, or $100 below Library Technicians. Its location quotient is 1.34.
2. Registered Nurses has 14,710 jobs in South Dakota, a gap of 14,060 from Library Technicians. Its median is $78,060 per year, or $48,470 above Library Technicians. Its location quotient is 1.48.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around South Dakota
General and Operations Managers has the highest published median in the bounded South Dakota role table, at $137,400 per year. Library Technicians has $29,590 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $47,080 per year. A role above that mark is not better. A role below it is not worse. The mark only shows where the role's published median sits against the full covered job mix. Job tasks, level, hours, and work setting are separate facts.
The bullets keep each SOC title, job count, median, and local share together. Use them to find a role page worth opening. Do not use a close median as proof that two roles share skills or that one is a path to the other.
1. General and Operations Managers has a median of $137,400 per year in South Dakota, or $107,810 above Library Technicians. BLS lists 4,280 jobs, compared with 650 for Library Technicians. Its location quotient is 0.42.
2. Accountants and Auditors has a median of $78,880 per year in South Dakota, or $49,290 above Library Technicians. BLS lists 5,820 jobs, compared with 650 for Library Technicians. Its location quotient is 1.36.
3. Registered Nurses has a median of $78,060 per year in South Dakota, or $48,470 above Library Technicians. BLS lists 14,710 jobs, compared with 650 for Library Technicians. Its location quotient is 1.48.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in South Dakota
Welders, Cutters, Solderers, and Brazers has the highest location quotient in the bounded South Dakota role table, at 2.66. Library Technicians has 3.2. Both values compare a local job share with the matching national share.
A quotient above 1 means the role takes a larger share of local jobs than it does across the nation. It does not mean more jobs than every other role. It does not mean open posts, growth, or high pay. The job count and median beside each row answer those other narrow questions.
The local role-share mix can differ a lot from the pay mix. Read both lists. Then compare Library Technicians with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Welders, Cutters, Solderers, and Brazers has a location quotient of 2.66 in South Dakota, a gap of 0.54 from Library Technicians. BLS lists 3,250 jobs and a median of $49,440 per year, or $19,850 above Library Technicians.
2. Bookkeeping, Accounting, and Auditing Clerks has a location quotient of 2.52 in South Dakota, a gap of 0.68 from Library Technicians. BLS lists 10,200 jobs and a median of $46,340 per year, or $16,750 above Library Technicians.
Price-level view
What $29,590 may mean after the South Dakota price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for South Dakota is 88.6. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 11.4% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $29,590 Library Technicians median by 88.6 divided by 100. The result is $33,403 in national-price dollars per year. This proxy keeps the math clear. It is not take-home pay and does not set a move target.
Housing is 67.6. Goods are 95.5. Utilities are 79.7. Other services are 91.9. The parts do not move as one. WageScope uses BEA's all-items index for the proxy and does not make its own basket.
The employment RSE for this Library Technicians row is 17.3%. The mean-wage RSE is 3.4%. RSE means relative standard error. It is a survey precision flag. A smaller value often means less sampling uncertainty. It is not the chance that one person's pay is right or wrong.
The employment RSE belongs to the 650 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $33,950 mean. BLS does not give the same RSE field for the median or every percentile. WageScope does not move an RSE from one field to another.
A local row can change in a new release. A small role-place sample can also have more survey uncertainty than a broad national row. Keep the May 2025 date next to the value. Do not mix a newer job post with the BLS date as if both facts came from one clock.
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Library Technicians. It uses a South Dakota place filter only when the public place list has an exact approved match. If that match is not safe, the page says the jobs are not narrowed to this place. A false negative is safer than showing a different role.
Each card keeps its employer, place, source, and seen date. Listings can change between visits while the survey figures stay tied to their release date. A listing range does not replace the $29,590 BLS median. The listing and survey answer different questions.
Open one listing. Check its level, work place, pay range, and needs. Then tailor with work facts you can support. Do not turn a wage, job count, rank, or price proxy into a résumé claim. The public page is read only. It does not save a job or start a draft on load.
What the Library Technicians row for South Dakota does not claim
The row does not say what one person earns. It does not promise a job, offer, raise, or move result. It does not say why the local median differs from the U.S. row. It does not add tips, bonus pay, stock, benefits, taxes, or work hours unless those items are in the BLS wage measure.
The 650 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 3.2 is not a growth score. Rank 48 of 52 is not a place score. The 88.6 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 25-4031 in BLS area 46. Compare the same metric with the state and U.S. rows. Add the separate 2024 price level when present. Inspect a dated job match. Then use confirmed work facts for a résumé.
BLS published an employment estimate of 650 wage and salary jobs for this exact row. It is a survey estimate, not a current opening count or forecast.
Are the current job listings included in the BLS wage calculation?
No. MeritLog shows eligible live public-catalog listings separately, with their own source and observation date. Posted pay never changes the official BLS distribution.
