Last week of classes

This is my last week of classes. I have one more final to go and after that I am done. Next week I have my practice portfolio to do and I am somewhat nervous about that. This is what I have preparing for since I started the program. The portfolio represents a journey that I have begun and will continue on into my professional career once I graduate. This document is an assessment of all the bits of knowledge I have picked up along the way. Next semester I will have to present my portfolio for real. I plan to use the website that I designed for my 5433 class to show that I can design a resource for students to use in the library. I will also mention my blog, as I feel this will be a good representation of my class this semester and my internship. I forgot! I must talk about the internship. The internship has helped me in so many ways. This semester I was able to sit at the reference desk and I will continue to do so next semester. Because I was able to sit at the desk and actually help people who needed information, I was able to apply what I had learned in class. It has been a very rewarding experience and I am glad that I was able to do it. I plan on continuing the internship next semester and continue learning more about the reference librarian field.
