Post Numero Uno
Welcome, librarians, vegans, strangers, friends, lovers and wild-eyed wanderers of the world wide web!
I’ve had the intention of starting one of these “blog” thingamajiggies for a while now, but somehow, I’ve neglected to turn that intention into action. I’ll admit, the thought of learning and/or re-learning HTML, CSS, XML, and other complicated-looking acronyms left me feeling a bit intimidated and overwhelmed. However, if John McCain can Tweet, I know I can blog! I’ll do it just to spite him.
A little about me: I’m a soon-to-be MLIS (Master of Library and Information Studies) student at McGill University in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. I’ll be in the program’s librarianship stream with other geeky, Converse-wearing, spectacle-sporting twenty-somethings. I hope to eventually pursue a career as an academic or special librarian. I would also love to work in international development, helping humanitarian organizations bring libraries, literacy and learning to people in developing countries.
Apparently, I also enjoy alliteration.
