So, I moved to New York, like eleven years ago from Kansas City, really from Atlanta, but because I only live there in ATL, for like six months I say Kansas City where I lived for like forever. When I moved to New York, I started my first real job, working at the library as a “Page.” I hated being called the “Page” oh the “Page” will get it, asked the “Page” anyway you get my meaning I loved being the “Page” I just never got used to be called the “Page”. Then I got a promotion from being a “Page” to being a clerk, then I found out that I liked to answer questions and help people look up things, find out information, help with the computers, find books, give directions, be the ear, the shoulder and sometimes the voice. So I decided to find out how does one become a Librarian. ….And so my journey began. I worked at the Prison upstate, then the Culinary Inst., then the Voice, Then NY, Medical, then the public library in Missouri, then A Fashion Library in Manhattan, then I found out that if I worked at a Library at a college more specifically Queens, I could get a degree in Library Science, and be on my road to not just working in the library, I could be the Librarian. Wow, me a Librarian. I was excited. I would be a professional person with a Masters, the only person in my whole family with a Master’s Degree. Now, when I first started out I wanted to be a YA librarian, I liked talking to children, love reading Children and YA novels. However, now, I’ve found that I really would like to be a Military Librarian. I really want to work in a Military Library, I was in the Military for five years and loved it. So this is now my focus to get done and get started on the next part of my life. I want to be a Librarian…….in the military.
