I like the facilities, diverse campus and the support our lecturers give - they're fountains of knowledge.
A large part of being a librarian and/or information professional is helping people to find good quality information and make sound judgement about the information they encounter. We look at this in a number of units.
It’s been reassuring that when I’ve spoken to people in that career about what they do, it’s a direct reflection of what we have been studying. This helps me feel like I am becoming a professional and to see myself as a librarian.
