Niki’s Answer

Hi Zoe, Great question! If you still have some time, I would recommend an internship or perhaps a part-time position at your school or local library. I worked at my college library during school. I had a basic job of sorting and placing books back on the shelves but it was a great exposure to the environment. I was a Math major and didn't have a career path into Library science but since you are very much going in that direction, you can take that part time position and see about expanding your daily chores and asking the professional librarians more about the career.
Wish you well!
Thank you comment icon Thank you so much Nicki! I will keep this in mind in the coming semester. Zoe
