I just started the MS program in Library and Information Science at SU. I'm starting this blog for IST 511- to reflect and comment on discussions we have in class. But I hope it's also going to document my time at SU and hopefully help me sort out my ideas and goals when it comes to librarianship, which is still new to me. I come from an English Lit background, but I chose to become a librarian because of my love of information and knowledge. In some ways, I chose librarianship because it felt like the closest I could get to studying everything. The public service aspect appeals to me too. I think providing communities with access to information is a vital part of improving society, but I should probably save those thoughts for another entry.
This is the first blog I've written since the short-lived livejournal account I had when I was fourteen (and which seems to have been obligatory for the Misunderstood Teenagers of my generation). So bear with me, all two of you who are reading this, as I get the hang of things.
