Hello Everyone!<\/span><\/p>\n

My name is Aniella, and I\u2019m looking forward to taking INFO 287 this summer. This is hopefully my last summer in the graduate program, as I\u2019m currently in my sixth semester. I started the MILS program at SJSU in Fall 2024 and am hoping to graduate by the end of next spring.<\/span><\/p>\n

I live in Los Angeles and work in the entertainment industry programming and operating a children\u2019s streaming service. One thing I\u2019ve found interesting throughout the program is that many of the classes have not only helped me prepare for my goal of becoming a public librarian, but have also been surprisingly useful in my current job. A lot of what we learn about information behavior translates well to understanding how younger audiences discover and engage with content.<\/span><\/p>\n

I was interested in taking the Hyperlinked Library course because, much like streaming, libraries have to continually adapt to meet users where they are. The course tagline<\/span>\u00a0caught my attention, and I\u2019m hoping to learn more about not only the empathy aspect discussed in the intro video, but also how libraries can recognize changing trends and evolve alongside their communities. In streaming, there are plenty of great shows available, but user interfaces often favor content with strong franchise recognition or established brands. I\u2019m hoping this course will give me a broader perspective on understanding user needs and helping people discover things they might otherwise miss.<\/span><\/p>\n

Outside of work and school, I enjoy reading, running, watching TV and movies, and watching sports, especially baseball and hockey. I\u2019m currently rereading A Court of Mist and Fury<\/em> in anticipation of the new Sarah J. Maas book coming out in October. I\u2019ve also run the LA Marathon twice, although it\u2019s been a few years since my last one. As for TV, I recently finished the latest season of The Boys<\/em> on Prime Video and really enjoyed it.<\/span><\/p>\n

Looking forward to learning with everyone this summer!<\/span><\/p>\n
