TUESDAY, April 26
Let's debrief from your visit with the media resource specialist (librarian) on your campus.

Let's begin with the Librarian from the Black Lagoon. What were your perceptions of your librarian when you were younger? How do those perceptions vary from what you know about librarians now? What did you find most fascinating about the librarian's position? What did you you learn that you did not know? How will this information help you in your journey toward planning your career?

Once finished with your "professional support services silhouette", hang your silhouette in the hallway. Use the guide sheet provided, and look for the information requested by "scavenging" through the information on all of the support services silhouettes.
