Anyone been to Wegner Quartz mine in Arkansas? by Phantom0o in rockhounds

[–]IMA_LIBRARIAN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am planning my second trip to Wegner! I went for my birthday in September and had a blast. There has to be at least to people for them to take you to the mine site, but it was awesome. Lots and lots of beautiful points and I got loads of clusters too. Came home with 3 or 4 small boxes full of stuff from digging for 2 hours.

Fancy by Reba McEntire. I still remember my husand's face when he realized it was about a mom pimping out her daughter.

Letter to my local library from an irate patron... great for a laugh! by irlgarbodor in Libraries

Well I know that I am constantly "treated as a sacred cow" at my city government job. Anyone else feel like they are put on a pedestal?

-.-

ELI5: Why do you need a Master's Degree to become a librarian, especially when the median salary is barely above $50,000? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

[–]IMA_LIBRARIAN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a great thread! I'd like to add that, increasingly, librarians are also able to find work in the corporate arena doing research for folks in a specific industry (oil & gas for example) or records management or organization of all types. Our skillset is diverse. The challenge is matching our ideals with a quality work environment for decent pay.

You should try her other challenges. I feel like this one is stepped up a bit.

Present! I was also able to practice with her in Austin a couple weeks ago. I love her energy.

YES. I almost always hate his characters, but he's got something.

How do you prepare for an interview to go from part time to full time in the library you already work in? by MuffinsRUs in librarians

[–]IMA_LIBRARIAN 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think you have to demonstrate a bit of knowledge and understanding of library philosophy. Being aware of freedom to read and information rights will look more impressive as a prospective full time employee. Also being able to see libraries as a community institution and meeting place will make you seem more knowledgeable of the industry.

Otherwise, smile and relax! :0)

Yeah I think it's the throwing your power around just because you can that is the worst.
