SkillShare: Paul Barrow and Molly Kleinman
Molly Kleinman
I answer questions about copyright and publishing, via email, over the phone, and in person. I teach workshops about copyright for faculty, staff, and students. I help authors understand their publishing agreements. The skills unique to my position mostly involve specialized knowledge about copyright and publishing, which I apply in ways similar to a regular reference librarian.
I would like to do Skillshare in something to do with access services, like circulation. I really don't understand the processes that make the collecting, lending and shelving of books run smoothly, and I would really like to. I've never even seen Aleph. I don't have much more detail than that, partly because I don't have a good understanding of what the various jobs are, and I don't know many of my colleagues in that department, which is another reason I would like to do a Skillshare there. I hope to develop a better understanding of the processes that keep the library running smoothly.

I can offer observations involving interactions with patrons, problem-solving patron records and Aleph troubleshooting. Working with situations as they need attention.
I expect to step outside of the walls created by routine attention to daily duties. I hope to gain a larger perspective of the Library system. And, above all, I am sure I will learn something that I never expected to learn. Then I expect to bring a more holistic approach to my job responsibilities.
