Dian Hauser MLS Portfolio Summer 2009

My Portfolio My goal as a MLS candidate was to learn to provide better service to the public library patrons I assist. I also wanted to better combine my life as an artist with my career in the field of Library Science. The artifacts I have chosen reflect these aspirations. I have also shown how selected learning outcomes and professional values of the MLS program dovetail with these artifacts.  http://dianhauser.weebly.com
