Librarians

What do you think librarians do? What do you think would be really cool if librarians started doing it? What do you think the library of the future might look like?
I think that librarians are the ones who help answer questions within the library. Also they are the ones who help guide a person to find something in a library, but also fix the books that are misplaced in the shelves. Librarians have hard tasks because they have to know there information because people go to them to find answers and they expect a librarian to know because they are librarians and that’s what librarians are for.
Librarians should start doing more things like Ms Moser is doing and informing the public much more about the internet and about how to do a good research. I think this would help the public because many people do not know that books still exist and that they can still go do research in a library. Another thing librarians should do is have book clubs for young people and give them something to do because sometimes kids do not have anything to do so reading clubs at the library would be fun. Finally I think that librarians should promote the library so that people still know that it exists and they can do it by making flyers or posters.
I think that the library of the future might be that instead of books there is going to be touch screen pads where you just look for what book you need, and that pad will have everything you need. Or maybe the librarians are going to be robots and they are going to be the ones working the library while the human librarians are working behind the scenes. Though no matter how the future library turns out it should be interesting and fun to have available to us.

College Plans

What do you hope to study when you go to college? Why?

When I go to college I hope to study for nursing because I love to help other people. for me it would be very rewarding to go into the medical filed because at this point in time it seems that more help is needed in that field. Also, because I know that if I become a nurse my mother will be very proud of me because that was what she wanted to study when she was in school. But my mom was unable to do that because she did not speak the language here in the U.S. and she did not finish her education. Therefore to be in the medical profession I am willing to work hard so that I can become a nurse and be in the service of others and make my mom see that I was able to go through with my dreams.Being in the medical profession will help me become a better person and it will allow me to see thing that I am unaware of. So if I go to college I know I will be able to meet people’s needs and so much more. Plus the medical profession needs more minorities so that people will be more comfortable when they visit the doctor.
