OT-Luciaphil, M.L.S.
« on: December 14, 2002, 01:35:33 AM »
I wasn't going to mention this at all, but Raineypark has instructed me not to be so modest.

It gives me great pleasure to announce that I have completed my coursework in library science and am now an official, honest-to-goodness, genuine librarian [blshy]

[read][read][read][read][read][read][read][read][read][read][read][read][read][read][read][read][read][read][read][read][read][read][read][read]

Soon I hope to be an official, honest-to-goodness, genuine employed librarian 8-)

Luciaphil, let me be the first to congratulate you on a job well done!!!  Pat yourself on the back several times, and have a cocktail for good measure, if that's your bag, baby!  A friend of mine went through the M.L.S. program in the early 90's and I know it was rough!!!

KUDOS AND CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

And best of luck in finding a job, I will keep my fingers crossed for you!

Dear Luciaphil,
Have you considered being a high school librarian (media specialist).  There is a great demand for certified librarians, and if your degee is high enough, the money ain't bad.  I did it for almost twenty years, and my masters in in librarianship, and then  took my last degree in Instructional Technology.  I love working with the little children and the high schoolers.  Think about it if you have trouble in the public domain.  I am a certified teacher also, that used to be a requirement for librarians in public school in Georgia, and it does help if you are in elementary, because you do teach a lot, and there is so much technology to learn and to teach. Anyway, best wishes! I know it was tough.

Even if I was good with and enjoyed being with the little darlings, that ship has sailed. I don't have the coursework necessary to be certified as a SLMS--I'm going the academic route :)

Thanks for the congrats!

Hey...Congratulations!  [thumb]

When you say you're going the "academic route", what does that mean?  You want to work in a university library?  (I know nothing about library science).

Admiringly,
-CLC

PS  I'd like to put a book on reserve.

Congratz, Luciaphil. Employed or not, you've got a nice credential that ought to help pave the way. Best of luck! And I hope you're over your bug. If so, may I borrow it? I'm trying to write about one for a new antho.

A bug, that is. ;)

Congratulations, Luciaphil!  Welcome to a wonderful profession. And if you should decide to change your mind and go the public library route, LAPL has just been granted a job unfreeze and will be trying to fill a whole bunch of vacant positions. All you have to do is be willing to move all the way across the country!  ;)

Just kidding. We hardly ever do that anymore. :)

Great Going Luciaphil!!
Maybe you can help me.  I got a library book out a couple of months ago...the thing is, I forgot to bring it back.  The question is...when I take it back, can I just 'mention' your name?  It would be like I know you.  What do you say?
Cassandra:  I have a potion.  You know it well.  As soon as she drinks it, within an hour, she will go to sleep and have the dream.
Nicholas:  I am much to talented to spend my time drugging drinks.
