What do you think librarians do? What do you think would be really cool if librarians started doing it? What do you think the library of the future might look like?

Librarians' jobs is to manage the library and give any assistant to those who need it. They can help people locate books or different types of information. They also keep track of books and make sure they are organized in their right category. I think the most important job of a librarian is helping others because without them there would be no one else to help people. Therefore, people wouldn't know how to check about a book, use the computer to look up information, etc. The cool things that librarians could start doing is making people become more interested in books and showing people, like senior citizens, how to use the computer. The way that librarians can make people become more interested in books is having kids go on field trips to their central/public library, and librarians can show them how to look up books, how to get a library card, etc. I think it would be more beneficial if librarians focus on younger kids because if children are influenced at a younger age, they could possibly grow to love books and have more knowledgeable about how to access the library as a resource. It'd be cool if librarians showed elderly people how to use the computer since basically everything is about technology and computers. This can help elderly people keep up with modern society. The library of the future will be a type of computer device that everyone will have, and it will allow people to get access to books through the internet; it will be like an eBook. The device will explain to people how to look up information using the internet, provide an infinity amount of books, and there will be a person who is always available to answers people's questions. Basically the library of the future will allow people to access it from home. The library of the future will be computer devices since computer are more commonly used.

What do you hope to study when you go to college and why? How is the Pre-Collegiate program helpng you meet your goals?

The thing that I hope to study when I get into college is Pre-med to become a Pediatrician. However, I’m not fully sure if I want to become a full time doctor because I’ve been told that they don’t have a lot of free time. But even if I don’t become a doctor, I still want to be involved with Pediatrics because I like working with kids. Since my sister has asthma and is constantly in and out of the hospital, it has made me become more interested in the medical field. I feel like if I’m able to be a Pediatrician, I’m able to give back to children who are less fortune, and I would have the ability to guide them back to health. Not only that, I really like the atmosphere that places like the Children’s Hospital has and how doctors interacts with their patients. The way the Pre-Collegiate program is helping me reach my goals is that during the summer program, I’m required to take a college course, English 1020. This is giving me a glimpse of what the college classes are going to be like. It has also been providing several health classes. This gives me chance to experience what it’s going to be when I enter health classes in college. The class that has had the greatest impact on me is Human Anatomy. It has caused me to become more interested in the medical field because of the various components and information there is to know about the human body. The classes challenge me a lot, so that’s another glimpse of the level of difficulty that college classes are going to be at. Pre- Collegiate is helping a lot with my future in college and my career path.
