My name is Adalie, and I am in my last year of SJSU&#8217;s MLIS program. In my search for a final elective course, I came across many recommendations for The Hyperlinked Library. I currently work at a community college as a library information technician, and I am always looking for ways to update our services and improve our reach. This class seemed like a good match for me.<\/p>\n<p>Growing up, I used to joke a lot about becoming a librarian because it seemed like a very stereotypical path for an avid reader like myself. In college, I started as a math education major and then switched to art history and curatorial studies. While earning my bachelor&#8217;s degree, I got a job at my university library&#8217;s special collections and archive. I absolutely fell in love with library work and decided to pursue an MLIS. My hope is to work in a museum or special collections, but I am open to a wide variety of paths.<\/p>\n<p>In my free time, I love reading, singing, playing piano, gardening, and making puppets. I spend a lot of time at the Hobbit Hole in my backyard gardening, watching the birds, or petting the neighborhood cats who wander by.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_19\" style=\"width: 235px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-19\" src=\"http:\/\/287.hyperlib.sjsu.edu\/adalie\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/607\/2026\/08\/image1-2-225x300.jpeg\" alt=\"picture of a woman holding up a fox and raccoon puppet.\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-19\" srcset=\"https:\/\/287.hyperlib.sjsu.edu\/adalie\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/607\/2026\/08\/image1-2-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/287.hyperlib.sjsu.edu\/adalie\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/607\/2026\/08\/image1-2-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/287.hyperlib.sjsu.edu\/adalie\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/607\/2026\/08\/image1-2.jpeg 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-19\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Two puppets I made for a local production of Cinderella<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_18\" style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-18\" src=\"http:\/\/287.hyperlib.sjsu.edu\/adalie\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/607\/2026\/08\/image0-3-300x225.jpeg\" alt=\"picture of a smiling woman standing in front of a low, yellow building with a green door.
