The Librarians of the Future
Public libraries, school libraries, hospital libraries, law libraries -- we have lots in common, including the need for great staff. Two Abbeville County students got a chance recently to learn about what libraries do behind the scenes. Brittany Rhodes and Holly Campbell both shadowed at Abbeville County libraries recently, learning about library theories (how do you keep track of 50,000 items?) and library policies (what if someone loses a book?) . They sat in on storytimes, helped kids with craft projects, helped check out materials, learned to cover hardback books, and even attended a meeting of the local Rotary club. And who knows? We might have a few more librarians in the making!
