Hope you like!
- Any other degrees?
- Not yet.
- Why did you choose library science?
- #1: Service -- no matter what, I gotta have a career based on service to the world at large.
#2: Libraries are a gateway to everything and ANYTHING! This compliments my studies in Philosophy -- a discipline which applies to everything and ANYTHING!
#3: Experience -- before earning my bachelor's, i already had a wealth of experience working at many public libraries (for L.A. County). I loved everyday and saw the ENORMOUS demand for minority librarians.
Not only was library science a natural calling to me, but I also see it as a responsibility to get into the field considering my "people" personality, academic qualifications, library work experience AND my "minority" identity.
