Hi everyone, I am looking to gain experience in a public library setting as an intern or volunteer. I graduated from Wayne State with my MLIS in 2011 and I am currently re-enrolled to complete a graduate certificate in school librarianship. I've been working as a high school English teacher for 15 years, so I have a great deal of experience working with teens and literacy-related issues. My goal is to become a teen or adult services librarian in the West Michigan area or to work in a school library. Does anyone have any advice on how to gain more library work experience, or do you have a need for an intern or volunteer, preferably in West Michigan? What do you look for on a resume when you hire? Taking a part-time job in place of teaching is unfortunately not an option for me. Your help is very much appreciated. -- Kimberly Essenburg kimberlaina@gmail.com dy0266@wayne.edu laina@umich.edu
