I am a graduate student at Pratt Institute studying Information and Library Science. I pursing the Master’s of Science in Library and Information Science. I also am planning on pursing the Museum Libraries Certificate. I am interested in Academic, Museums, and Art Librarianship. I am looking for new employment opportunities in these fields. However, since I am not yet done with my masters, it is difficult to do so. I am hoping to gain experience in Academic, Museums, and Art Libraries.
Sincerely,
