The Why ... and My Library Interest

This blog is written by Dr. Hilbun’s graduate assistant for her sections of LS 5013 ISAR, otherwise known as Information Storage and Retrieval. I will post the competencies here throughout the semester in order to fulfill the requirements for LS 5013. I hope to provide examples and ideas that will guide you through this ISAR course.

I am interested in special collections access and availability in all types of libraries. Special Collections can exist in all types of libraries but are mostly found in university and public libraries. Completing these competencies along with you will not only be fun but will also assist me with my research interests and will help me with my full-time position. I am currently a Collection Development Librarian for a special collection at a public library.
