Five years of librarian perspectives

Why Librarianship?

While in undergrad, I worked several part-time student jobs, and my last and favorite was in the library. While there, I developed a passion for assisting and meeting the information needs of others. I had a “lightbulb” moment and realized I could turn this into an actual career!

Librarianship suits my personality: it is a perfect combination of public service and detective work.

I worked in my college library when I was completing my undergraduate degree in English literature. I knew I didn’t want to go on to be a teacher, but I really liked the environment and work of the library, so I asked the librarians how I could be like them.
