Juice Bar Set Up

Hi there!

I am a San Jose State University School of Library and Information Science graduate student, and this is a blog on my library musings.  Much of my reflections here will focus on Web 2.0 technology and applications for libraries.

I currently work at a medium sized public library in Southern California as an assistant for the Reference department, while also helping to oversee the Periodicals department.  We have a nice thing going here, and I am fortunate to have the opportunity to work with such wonderful individuals.  After years of gentle encouragement by the librarians I work with, I finally started the SLIS program in Spring 2009, and have been plugging away since.

So far, my studies have been going great.  I'm looking forward to learning as much as I can about various Web 2.0 and social software tools, and their applications for libraries this semester.  I also hope to have fun engaging with my classmates through online dialogue and gaining their perspective on various topics.

Cheers to a fruitful semester!
