What I'm looking for

I am looking for an entry-level position where I can apply my skills and collaborate with a talented team to create a better world.

I am a passionate and dedicated aspiring librarian and information science professional based in Nairobi, Kenya. With three months of hands-on experience in library operations, I am eager to drive into the professional world and apply my skills in a collaborative environment. My keen eye for capturing captivating information fuels my passion for information management and its vital role in society.

During my attachment program, I gained valuable experience in cataloguing information materials, organizing library resources, and assisting users in navigating complex information systems. I have learned the Library of Congress method of classification and have actively promoted literacy and lifelong learning within my community. My commitment to preserving and providing access to information has been a driving force in my professional journey.
