Day 3

Today was my last day of my first week at the Yale Medical Library. When I arrived I picked with the video equipment that I will be using for my Healthflick video. Then I met Lei Wang, who is an Instructional Design Librarian. Lei briefly showed me how to use the equipment and explained more about the video. I then interviewed Lei to get to know him a little better, as he will be helping me with my video. Lei went to college in China, where it is very competitive to get in. He studied English in college because he liked language studies. Lei went on to graduate school at The University of Michigan, where I hope to go to college. He had his first job as a librarian at The University of Michigan's library. He came to Yale when he saw a job posted, and now he creates videos to educate people on resources in the library. Lei is proud of the over 100 videos he has created and can be seen worldwide. Although Lei wishes for more time to maintain the amount of productivity, he enjoys doing things  that are innovative and enjoys that his job always bring new challenges. Lei loves that there is always something going on in New Haven, like concerts and plays. He says Yale is just the right size. Lei is inspired by every single person he meets and says that everyone has taught him something.
