Hello everyone. This is my very first video.
My name is Nancy Ellis.
I'm currently living in traverse city michigan
I am a caregiver for a senior lady.
I live in a beautiful home on Lake Michigan.
I'm very spoiled.
uh... i've been doing this for about a year and a half since my daughter went
off to college.
It keeps my expenses down and
let's me stay in school.
anyway uh... my experience in libraries is
not very much.
I worked in a library in my high school which was many,
many years ago, before they had computers,
and I also worked in one as a work/study in college for one semester.
Mostly I fixed the new books that came in with
book covers.
Um, I am hoping to also learn web design
um, grant writing,
and database management,
and make myself very marketable.
either within a public or academic library.
i don't know as what,
or possibly to have my own business writing grants for libraries.
So I'm open to
finding out all the different
areas that I could possibly
work with my MLIS,
and I'm thinking
I'll find just the right thing.
I had a great idea today!;
developing an app
that does reference check
from your phone.
When you're in the library,
you can just
push on your app and you get a face-to-face Reference Librarian!
It would then have a GPS to tell you right where the book is.
This is the kind thing I think about,
so hopefully I'll be able to
use my thoughts
to further
Library Science.
