graduating from library school soon -- maybe in a month, maybe in a
year -- and
you’re wondering how to impress potential employers, right? The Oregon
Chapter of the Special
Libraries Association wants to help! Attend our upcoming
professional development
event for library students, and you can get
personalized advice on your resume
from an actual professional librarian!</span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial"></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:16.0pt;text-autospace:none"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:#141414">Attendees
currently enrolled in any MLS/MLIS program will receive a selection
of
simulated job postings to which to apply. These jobs will come from a
variety
of special library fields. Submitted resumes will then be matched to an
ORSLA
professional librarian for personal, individual review at the event.</span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial"></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:16.0pt;text-autospace:none"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:#141414">Non-students
can also look forward to a presentation on early-career job search strategies
for
librarians by social media guru Scott Brown. Scott gave a great
presentation on
social networking for library professionals at the ORSLA Annual
Dinner in
October, and we’re thrilled that he’s coming back to offer his insight to new
librarians. This
will also be a great chance to get back to basics in your own
professional
development, to reconnect with the community of librarians and information
professionals,
and to get a look at the new talent coming out of library
school.</span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial"></span></p>
