And by doing so, it means I get to use them too! Because if a dinosaur can do it, anyone can. Plus, most of my job is modeling for the social media team, and even dinosaurs need to feel glamorous every once in a while. They do keep asking me to actually re-shelve books while I\u2019m posing for pictures pretending to re-shelve the books. Re-shelving books was not part of my job description. I hope they don\u2019t mind that I snack on a few in the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How long have you worked for Boston College Libraries?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even though I\u2019m about 80 million years old (don\u2019t skip out on sunscreen, it\u2019ll save your face!) I\u2019ve only started to look for jobs very recently. It\u2019s tough enough to rent an apartment in Boston as it is, even harder for a dinosaur with no line of credit. Luckily, the staff at Boston College thought I could be useful highlighting all the library has to offer, even during quarantine! It was a little tricky starting out &#8211; a lot of profound apologies, you know? People coming around a corner don\u2019t expect to find themselves face-to-face with a prehistoric predator. Officially, I started in May of 2020, so it\u2019s my one-year anniversary soon!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Give us one fun fact that you would like the BC Community to know about you?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m actually a vegetarian!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Your Name:&nbsp;Bibliosaurus Your Library: O\u2019Neill Your Department: Access Services Job Title: General Nuisance Associate<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":64,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"series":[],"coauthors":[91],"class_list":["post-1730","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-article"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/library.bc.edu\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1730","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/library.bc.edu\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/library.bc.edu\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/library.bc.edu\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/64"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/library.bc.edu\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1730"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/library.bc.edu\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1730\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1749,"href":"https:\/\/library.bc.edu\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1730\/revisions\/1749"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/library.bc.edu\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1730"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/library.bc.edu\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1730"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/library.bc.edu\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1730"},{"taxonomy":"series","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/library.bc.edu\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/series?post=1730"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/library.bc.edu\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1730"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
