I am writing to you today because I feel I meet many of the
skills required for the digital librarian assistant. I became
aware of this position via OLIS list serve.
I am currently enrolled at the University of Rhode Island in my second
year of their MLIS master’s program.
In my time at Cranston
Public Library, I came to discover a great footing to teaching computer
literacy courses. Thanks to that PFE, I have been able to add Computer
Basics, Spotify, Microsoft Word, and more to the classes I feel strong
teaching. Wth kindness and patience, I was able to deliver services to
these patrons. In my undergraduate years, I
learned much about PC and Mac computers as I had to, and still, use them every
day. This gave me the opportunity to
stay aware of what games and programs the children and teens are using. One of my favourites is Minecraft. Since high school, I have been using Facebook
and, since then, I have added other social media such as Pinterest, Tumblr,
Vine, and Twitter.
It is my goal to combine what I have learned in the library
field to be an extroverted, passionate being that would make positive
contributions to your library. Therefore I would like to be considered for this
position and would welcome an interview.
Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing from you at your
earliest convenience.
Respectfully yours,
Christina M. Dufour
