Brief introduction

Hi, this is my first ever blog post.  I am a library assistant based in an Institute of Technology.  Prior to this I worked in public libraries.  I fell into the library world by accident when I spotted an advert for a job as a Branch Librarian in a public library.  I had completed college and was not sure what to do with myself.  I had considered applying for the MLIS during my BA but was put off by the fact that I didn't have any library experience!  I finally got there and completed my MLIS, and thereafter got a Library Assistant post in another public library.  I recently moved into academic libraries as I felt I needed a change and a challenge.  So, far I am still adjusting.  I am member of the cataloguing team so am learning new skills.  I want to stretch myself further and this is why I am doing this course as I am not the most experienced on social media.  And want gain practical experience in doing it rather than just reading about it.
