Today I interviewed Kelly and Rick. Rick is the circulation manager and manages/supervises the workers at the circulation desk. He makes sure that everything runs smoothly and helps people who cannot find a book and gets medical information for people from around the world. He loves his job because it is a customer service position where he can directly help people to find the medical information that they may need. He started over at Sterling Library then transfered over to here. He said that it did not take him long to realize that this is the job he wanted because shortly after he started, he realized that he was good at it and that it was rewarding. His advice to anyone who is thinking about the same career or simular would be to have a good sense of dealing with people, both the customer and the staff and to stay in school and continue to get a good education.

Kelly deals with scanning documents and inter library loans. She started off doing sports medicine, which is what I am also thinking about doing, but she realized that working in libraries was something that she has done all her life and was probably meant to do. Her background has infuenced her also because as a child her parents used to always take their children to the library very often which seems to have had an impact on her leading her to the library setting. Her favorite parts of her job are learning new things , seeing old books and reading about ideas that she never thought people could have. Her advice to someone pursuing this job is simular to the advice that other librarians have given which is to have an open mind and be willing to try new things and learn new things.
