My Good News!

As many of you know, I am studying to be a librarian. I'm finishing my Bachelor's in English Literature in May (just two more semesters!), then I'll be going to grad school to get my Master's in Library Science in order to be a public librarian - my dream!

Well, back in April, I took the library civil service test and just recently found out that I scored a 100 on it.... and I just got hired to work part time at the circulation desk at one of my local libraries! Eeee!!! So needless to say, I'm ecstatic. This is the step in the right direction, and a total dream for me. I'm hoping to be able to work my way up in the library world, and once I get my Master's, become a librarian at that library. My local library is WONDERFUL! It's got to be the best in the county, and there are quite a few awesome libraries throughout my county. It's a huge library with so many awesome programs, TONS of books, music and DVDs, computers, and everything and they loaned over one million items last year. SWEET! It's such a cool place and I cannot wait to begin my career there.

I've got a number of reviews coming up this week so I'll see ya soon!

  4. Congrats. That's fabulous news! I'm very jealous about your job--I have an MLIS and because of government cutbacks, no one is hiring in my area. :(
    You are going to be great!
