In my mind, this is the kind of librarian I am...only minus the gun. (Image via screwydecimal.com)

This has been a huge week. A huge week. I have so much to tell you all…but i’ll start with this: I have a new job!

If you recall, my current position as a Reference Librarian is temporary, so recently I’ve been applying to other jobs. A few weeks back I had an interview for a dream job. I didn’t hold my breath. But then they called me back for a second interview. I was getting excited. Then they called my references. I was panicking. Then they called me in for athird interview. I was confused, but also still totally on board.

So my third interview was today and as you may have guessed…I got the job!

I’m transferring from academic libraries to public libraries (a jump I’ve wanted to make). I’m going to be a Branch Librarian at our local county library, so we’re not moving. It’s a fantastic position at an amazing library. I’ll get to have my hand in a little bit of everything, including children’s programming, which is what I really want to do.

Woo hoo!

It’s bittersweet  because I really do love my co-workers. They’re all so lovely. But still – I’m so excited!
