Hey, Melissa, please send me the c:\ark\alice files (I hope I got that
write-- oops, right). I'm a wannabe just graduating from a program in
Library Science at UNC-Chapel Hill, interests in environment, health,
science (and the background to go with it). The way the job market looks,
I may be doing 2-3 things to make a living, and think I would enjoy
tech-writing, possibly try copy-editing, indexing, etc. Moving back to
Vermont or at least New England soon. Any suggestions for beginners from
the list are greatly appreciated--as well as leads to library jobs in
Health Sciences libraries or hospital libraries! Thank you for allowing
me to use the list for this plug, I've been a lurker since I joined
just recently. And thanks for the file.
