Realistically? I'm a bit of a database nut, and love to work with computers. My intended major area of study is Information Organization. I think it may just fit me well!
- Tell us something about yourself:
I've worked in a medical library for 17 years:
Interlibrary Loan Librarian ~ 16 years
Cataloger ~ 1 year
Also had stints at a library network and my undergraduate college library. ~ 4 years, total.
Took me almost 10 years to decide between an MLS or an MBA. Decision reached a few months ago, when I realized that I was most qualified to work in a library! :)
- Any other degrees?
- B.A. in History
- Why did you choose library science?
- I've been working in libraries for nearly 20 years without the MLS. I decided it was time to go back to school!
Accepted into Grad School!
I received my formal acceptance letter on Friday. Yay! I'm a grad student!
I'll be a part time mostly web-based student starting in January 2008.
I live less than 20 miles from the school I'll be attending, but I've got a full-time job, a kid, a hubby, and two cats. I think that it will be easier for me to go to school at my beloved computer!
