Why I love interning at a public library

Public Library

Because in one night I get to:

  • Help with IRS paperwork
  • Find The Road by Cormac McCarthy
  • Weed the old books in the YA room
  • Mark things as missing in Polaris
  • Brainstorm a YA room display
  • Help people find divorce forms online
  • Schedule rooms for group study
  • Troubleshoot a printer
  • And then go show a film for family movie night

Yep, my internship is pretty awesome.
