{"id":13023,"name":"Alina","url":"","description":"Hello! My name is Alina and I am a full-time MLIS student at UBC. I have lived in the Lower Mainland my entire life (mostly in Vancouver, although I have now settled in Richmond). I am a huge fan of all things related to libraries (of course!) and cats (I have three!). \r\n\r\nOutside of school, I work part-time as a Research Assistant at UBC, volunteer at an elementary school library one day a week, and I am also doing some volunteer work at a women's centre library on the North Shore. I am part of the UBC Library Student Advisory Committee, the BCLA Continuing Education Committee, the Young Readers' Choice Awards Society of BC, and I am a section editor for the BCLA Browser. I am not entirely sure what kind of library I would like to work in once I graduate because I am drawn to so many different kinds of librarianship, so I am trying to get as much professional experience as possible in order to decide what I would like to do professionally. I have the feeling that the answer to that question may be a bit of everything, but I guess we shall see!","link":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/ivefs2012\/author\/akosel\/","slug":"akosel","avatar_urls":{"24":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/b5c942b8a11fabcd651ba383e22c3d560948c8dcbdfa0cfe5dd0acfbc59682cc?s=24&d=mm&r=g","48":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/b5c942b8a11fabcd651ba383e22c3d560948c8dcbdfa0cfe5dd0acfbc59682cc?s=48&d=mm&r=g","96":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/b5c942b8a11fabcd651ba383e22c3d560948c8dcbdfa0cfe5dd0acfbc59682cc?s=96&d=mm&r=g"},"meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/ivefs2012\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13023","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/ivefs2012\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users"}]}}
