The document discusses factors that can add value to a job and salary negotiation even when the salary itself may not be negotiable. It identifies internal factors like benefits, opportunities for education and skills development, and work-life balance as well as external factors like cost of living, market demand, and taxes that determine an employee's overall worth. The document advises librarians to know these factors, have a negotiation plan, and directly negotiate with decision-makers to potentially improve incentives, title, reporting structure and other perks.
