Everyone said it was a super interesting and inspiring class, and that you had a lot of flexibility to adjust it to your interests. Furthermore, on the business-end of things, you have the ability to create artifacts to satisfy competencies that go beyond the ones in the syllabus. It might be just me, but I felt like the title of the course sounded a bit mysterious, so I really dug into the syllabus description, and, while the idea of studying different branches that libraries are evolving into does sound very interesting and inspiring, the word \u201chuman\u201d stood out to me. I really believe that libraries are a way to connect people to information, but they are also a way to connect people to people. Through information, common interests, and maybe sometimes just the will to bond. I see it everyday at my HS library: at least half of the students come with a buddy. As I am planning to be a TL and know that school libraries are a third space for students, I wanted to take a course that would further my knowledge but also push my imagination on what my school library could evolve into. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello !
