This book was compiled and edited by a librarian who was
instrumental in getting funding from a Library Services and
Technology Act grant to carry out an internship program in public
libraries. The grant allowed the MCLS consortium of public
libraries in the Los Angeles area to place library school students
in paid internships in MCLS member libraries. The successful
program was called 'From Interns to Library Leaders' (FILL), and
led in part to this book, which offers firsthand 'advice from the
field' provided by former public library interns and internship
site supervisors. Contributors include a diverse group of voices
and representative experiences from around the country, who had
either worked as or supervised a student intern in one of the many
fields of public librarianship (e.g., public services, children's,
technical services, branches, etc.). The result: eighteen chapters
written by practitioners and library school faculty, who generously
share what it's like to participate in a public library internship.
