My Experice at the library has been great! They have a lot of great help that can help you with anything. One thing that has changed in the library was they got a new teens area where teens can go and read! They also have a great wide selection of books so you can have a big reading selection. I would say that the library is an awesome place to be!

Well I like the new library. I also like that we have computers now at the volunteen desk =)

I have had a great time going to the libary they have everything that i need and i can always go some where that is very quiet and not to stuffy in there and its always the right temperture for the seasons and the staff is nice to everyone and understands everything that you ask.. i would say they have been taught well.

People might think the library is boring but it isn't! There are so many things to do there that dont make it boring. You can go on the computer, look for books or movies, or study. So my experience at the library has been good and everyone should come and see what it has to offer you!

I like the new library also and me and i am having fun

i've already gone to volunteen this summer. I love it !! i would tell anyone to go next year

Hey everyone! Although I have never been a library intern, I've heard from my friends (who WERE interns) that it was a LOT of fun! They said that it was really fun to work at the library, and that the party at the end was mega awesome! They also said that working there taught them a LOT about hard work, responsibility, and the pressure of having to deal with "big people" lol. I have seen many people have tremendous fun on the job. I orihinally wanted to intern, but the positions were full this year AND last year. Uggh! Maybe next year ;)

I wish to be a teen helper I whould get to have more fun so far I love the library great books I can read

Anonymous said...

I am currently a voulteen this year. It is my first year and i was scared because none of my freinds were doing it and i thought i would be a fish out of water or somethig... BUT i wasn't. I've met a lot of cool people and the whole knew coputer system is a great way to run the summer reading club! It has been a great experence so far!

Anonymous said...

it has been very funn and the libary has done nothing but show me that it is better then just to use the computer and chill with friends and i love to go and look for books that i am interested in and taking my little brother and sister is also funn to. i just like going to the libary..

Anonymous said...

I enjoy the Library a lot. It is a fun place to go to with a wide variety of books. You can always find the one you are looking for with the great service!

Anonymous said...

My experince at the libary was great! I'm a volunteen at whitehall and its pretty fun accept that you have to sit down and do nothing sometimes.

Anonymous said...

I love the library! There is a new place in the teen section where you can comfortably sit and read. I love the computers too. There is no other place to be other than the library (atleast thats what I think). :)

shannon said...

So far working at the Main Library has been so fun. It is much harder then it looks like. There is so much more to the library then what I thought. I never would have guessed i would be doing this. There is alot to do at the main library since it is so big. There is always something to do here. I am having fun though!!!!!!!!

Richard intern at Main Libray said...

The new library that I am working at is soo cool. I like shevling the books because cause it makes the day go faster. And now that I work at the main library and they have so many books I am going to try to get to read most of those books.

deron intern said...

this very nice im loving this 4 real!!!!:)

Intern Meagan@Main said...

Working at the Main Library again this year has been great. Not only is the library staff supportive, they are incredibly friendly as well. Java Monster discounts are really delicious too!

Anonymous said...

I think that the library is a great place to work becasue it is not loud and it is a great place to get your work done

shantisha@main said...

working at the library started off very boring but its better now and i enjoy working alone in GHT.i have not been shelving books, mostly typing and putting addresses on papers.

andersongirl_atmain_intern said...

i wish that everyone was here last was here again because it was way more fun, the new kids dont understand that they can have fun and get the work done, they are soooooo doll dang its crazy, i felt really great when i was asked to train a new intern. i love this job lol but i think i might end up working for the library :) lol its three peolpe here from last year and i enjoy them .... i love my job!!!!!!!

Anonymous said...

My Experience working as an summer intern at thr Main library is fun, but working at the library is harder than what i thought it was before i was accepted to work here. I thought it was going to be extra boring,but there is actually exciting things to do and exciting people to meet. Everyone who works here are always happy and helpful.

janetta intern at main library said...

the library is a wonderful place to learn an gain new knowledge daily....people think it's boring but it realli isn't..it's realli fun you meet new people and new chracters....also the many new books that come and go....

wat really surprised me workin at the main library was that the the many different job that are actually being done other than shelving...for example..book drop , shelf read, straighten and reshelving, shifting, sorting..etc...so yea dat realli shocked me

South said...

i love the library. i m so glad that i am here and am getting this opportunity to learn more about the library and getting to learn about how the library functions.

I actually work in finance at the main library. Ive been doing many tasks that have taught me how an office functions. this will be so useful in the future.

I enjoy volunteering at the library because I have easy access to books and DVD's. The library is full of welcoming and nice people that really assist me in my work.

Brittany at Main Library said...

The week so far is going really fast. We haven't done much shelving at the main library because there haven't been that much books. I am having such a great time working at th libarary. I get to experience new things and just have some fun. I have made some new friends too. Everything has just been so great here at main. It is a great place to be......... WRITE MORE SOME OTHER TIME

Richard intern at Main Libray said...

This week for me has been great. I have got to pool loans and I got to sort, and shleve books. I have made some new friends in this week. But the only thing that I don't like is that I have to work from 9-2 because the soccer practice I have after work.
But other than that the library is a cool place to be.

Anonymous said...

yeah richard you sure do post alot...they let you on the computer that much?

South said...

this week and last week have been great..i love the people and the work (believe it or not). im glad im getting this opportunity to learn more about how the world really is..this week so far i have gotten hundreds of papers reasdy for scanning, i have written in dates on documents,and thats about it. but i like it. on tuesdays i come in at 9:30, and leave at 2:30, its early for me but honestly? its made alright by that fact that i am getting paid for it. that mostly and also the fact that i get so much good experience. thanks guys!

Hello everyone. This week has been pretty nice. The sorting room has been kinda empty. Lunch has been decent. Straightening and reshelving has been boring, but it has to be done I guess. I hope that everyone is having a super duper time!

Anonymous said...

I love my supervisor,Miss Hallie, I am glad that she is my first time boss, some people have crappy mean bosses. Miss Hallie is sarcastic, nice, energetic and playful, but at the sametime you will know when she is serious and she is very clear on what she want you to do, when she want you to do it and how she want it done. Everyone here at main respects her. She is a person who listens and understands her employees.

andersongirl_atmain_intern said...

iSr@3l her3 s@ying that my week has be3n g00d and b@d. its seems like a day of high school with the drama of he say she say and the i dont like her or him just cause (no real reason)they said this and that ... the truth is we came to work and maybe make friends not click up and down one another. lol high school is so over rated lol. why cant we all just get along !!!!! wow i wake up wanna sleep just cause of the high school drama in the back of my mind yo. so right now im not feeling my job .

What is the library internship program? Is this at the main library or a branch? Is this another word for voluteering? If so, then I volunteered at the library during the last two weeks of June. My experience there had been great, because I not only got to help out, but I also could check out returned unseen videos/DVDs while I was doing my work.

South said...

this is my last week...my last few days! geeeeezzz....its been wonderful...thank you finance for investing in me so much and helping me succeed during my time with you. thank you sue wolford for hooking me up with the next author visit. and thanky ou to the library for being so cold. i cant believe i get to put this on my resume...hi arthurrrrrrr

wow the main server for this blogs time is waaaay off. so lets reflect. I've learned alot about how the library works and is still surpriesed with the level of depth that goes into working here. my mind is just blown. I thought it would be easy. I've got to know some cool people better, made some unfortunate few enemies i wasn't trying to, and met some new people that will probaly be in my life for a long time to come. No Regrets. Thank you.
