Hi All,
My name is Jim Emard. I am the Librarian for the Department of Correction-Massachusetts Treatment Center here at Bridgewater. I am a one person operation providing library services to 604 patrons. The Treatment Center is the only one in the state system that provides treatment for offenders convicted of sexual crimes, a “special population” indeed. My work in this course has to be done from home, due to having a limited access to the Internet.
I was introduced to the Internet in 1994, in the last year at library school. I didn’t realized all the infinate possibilities that the Internet has to offer in terms of information retrevial. Its’ a wonderful tool indeed.
