Thing 11

Mentors....

I had to select a mentor for my Chartership - forgot to mention that on the last Thing entry - anyway, I was lucky as realised I sort of knew one of the people on the mentor list. She worked for Worcestershire authority which is who I used to work for so I contacted her and luckily she agreed to become my mentor. We had some good chats (in the pub!) and she was useful whilst undertaking my chartership. It was good as my chartership portfolio was based on my current job but as I'd worked for public libraries as well it was interesting to compare notes on the different areas and my mentor was a good sounding board as she was not  involved in academic libraries  and gave a fresh perspective on things.
