To Be a Librarian

Part 3

A TEACHER

No matter where your career takes you--into a school, public, academic, archives. . . You will teach someone at some point.  In all actuality, you will be teaching every minute of every day.  Whether it is simply by example or actively engaged in interactions with others, you will teach.  You will teach how to use and navigate the library.  You will teach a love of books or reading.  You will teach people of all ages.  Embrace this opportunity.  Understand that it is something you cannot avoid.  Teach!
