Hello, I am Bjorn. Welcome to my Library 2.0 Blog!
Having recently attained a Masters degree in Library and Information Science, I am now seeking to leverage my education and professional experience within the field of public libraries.
I understand that a broad skill-set is required for successful librarians. Ideally, I am seeking a position that would allow me the opportunity to utilize a variety of skills I have acquired as a graduate student at San Jose State University. My course work and two professional-level internships with San Jose Public Library have emphasized modern public library services and the application of online communication technologies.
I have actively developed my knowledge within the following areas: (in random order)
1) Reference
2) Collection Development
3) Web Content Management
4) Team Leadership
5) Marketing
6) Community Outreach
7) Programming
Six years of customer service experience with highly successful companies in the Food Service Industry has reinforced my personal commitment to the highest levels of professionalism and personal excellence. I have strong interpersonal skills and a proven ability to work effectively leading teams of persons from other cultures and all walks of life.
I welcome the opportunity to discuss future employment possibilities. Please feel free to contact me via email: Bjorn Jones, Bjornthelibrarian@gmail.com
Thanks and have a great day!
