Today i was to meet with Daniel Dollar and the rest of the CDM department. They basically order books, organize and pay for catalogs, and they work with the invoicing payments. They are also part of an E response team which helps patrons who need assistance through an online system. Daniel updates and renews books and articles online. He works with the collection development committee to make decisions on what to purchase and what not to purchase. Daniel is also part of a program called HINARI which helps poor countries with health information and sales. he will be going to South America to work and train people with the program for a whole week. Over the length of his career Daniel has learned that one must think before they act and that will lead to the right decisions.



Next I met Lei Wang. He is an instructional design librarian. He is is one of the few people in the country who works this job! Lei helps bring user education online. He works with curriculum research support to bring certain topics online such as anything that the library teaches. He believes that you can know everything but it doesnt mean that you can teach it. Lei creates tutorials that help doctotrs for example on certain things they may need to learn. You can find Lei's tutorials by subscribing to an RSS feed. Lei's degrees in media production and educational production help him with the tutorials he creates. His previous undergrad. major cultivates a sensitivity to language and to understand it. Throught the years he has worked in the library, Lei has learned what are the best ways to find information and he has formed habits in information seeking behavior. As a librarain he also help people to obtain these skills. Over the length of his career Lei has learned that one must take things slowly and that they must think before they act.



The last person i met today was Jan. She is works with the educational services and she makes sure information is affective and efficient. Jan had a love for libraries ever since she was young. She always knew that she wanted to be a library. The only unexpected thing is that she did not know she would be working in a medical library with a degree in library science. She helps with teaching, support researching for systematic reviews. Over the length of her career Jan has come to a conclusion that working with a team makes the result much more brilliant
