My interview with success story David<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Naomi: <\/strong>How did you find your current job?
\nDavid: <\/strong>Through volunteer work at the library, I had made myself known as a dedicated librarian impartial to disengaged staff, patrons, or scholars. After two applications for different positions, about 40-50 hours of volunteer work for the Special Collections and the Info Zone at Rawlings public library, and a lot of searching outside of my area: I finally earned Circulation Clerk II at Lamb branch library in Pueblo.<\/p>\n

Naomi: <\/strong>Favorite library you have been to?
\nDavid: <\/strong>Santa Fe Public Library in Santa Fe, New Mexico<\/p>\n

Naomi: <\/strong>Favorite book?
\nDavid: <\/strong>Frankenstein<\/em>, the modern Prometheus by Mary Shelly<\/p>\n

Naomi: <\/strong>Favorite thing about libraries\/ library technology?
\nDavid: <\/strong>Reading print copies and abolishing all user devices except card catalog kiosks. The return of the reading library is eminent.<\/p>\n

Naomi: <\/strong>Any websites or feeds or blogs we should be following?
\nDavid: <\/strong>www.hyperdictionary.com<\/a>
\nwww.steelworks.us<\/a>
\nwww.santafelibrary.org<\/a>
\nwww.pueblolibrary.org<\/a>
\nwww.yourworldoftext.com\/home\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Naomi: <\/strong>Best piece of job hunting advice?
\nDavid: <\/strong>Be professional, engaged, and prepared to teach patrons. Prove this to interviewers by treating them like you would an engaged and knowledgeable patron. NEVER call a patron a customer, and NEVER consider a patron more or less than equal. Also, humor is the best way to humble even the grumpiest of souls. Smile.<\/p>\n

My name is David del Norte. I have worked for libraries throughout my college education and in all capacities of library science; from circulation, reference, special collection, archives, government documents, information commons and, most recently, recorded oral history management for Bessemer Historical Society and CF&I Archives. My first paid library employment is at Lamb Branch Library for Pueblo City-County library district<\/a>. When not reading, working at libraries and archives, or riding skateboards and one-speed road bikes, I write poems, short stories, and love letters. In addition, I plan to start a master’s program in Sound Archives in the Fall of 2013.<\/em><\/p>\n
