David (canadiandave) Hey everyone! I just joined yesterday, and I'm generating my lists for the Spring Reading Challenge already (hopefully it will be posted soon).

I'm finishing my MLS in August and work in the Harold B. Lee Library at BYU full-time in Provo, UT. I grew up in Canada and love books!! I've mostly been reading fantasy lately, but love classics and history as well. My private collection is about 400 books, but I'm working on that. :)

Allison (inconceivably) ooo cool, I want to get my MLS in the next few years...I have a few credit hours left for my Bachelors yet, though. Congrats! :)

Welcome to TNBBC, we'll help you get as many books as you can shove into your home, I promise you

Hi David! Welcome!!

Great news about your degree. Congratulations!! Not really a good move joining this group... have to warn you: you'll have so many new things to read you won't have time to write your thesis!! ; )

David (canadiandave) Too late! :) I read like 12 books at a time already!

Leora Welcome, this is a great group and the Spring challenge is a lot of fun!


message 7: by David (new)

David (canadiandave) Allison - yay! The MLS is fun. I never thought I'd get one, since my mom's a librarian and I had done my pre-meds, but deciding against Med-School (stupid insurance companies not giving doctors freedom to do anything) and debating between int'l law and business, I got offered a nice scholarship to go to library school and said, "hey, why not?" So here I am, a science librarian. Less than a year after graduating with my bachelors. Weird.

Tara Hey David! I just joined this week too, and I also go to BYU. Good old Provo. What a great library you get to work in!

Hi David, welcome to the group.
400 is quite the little library isnt it?


message 10: by David (new)

David (canadiandave) Tara - Thanks! I enjoy it. I worked there as an undergrad until I graduated in 2007 and they offered me a job! :)
