Hello, I am Vittoria, and I started a new job as a Library Assistant (Assistant Librarian on my school ID) in a secondary school in London in January 2020.

I also work as a casual, zero hour library assistant in the Wandsworth public libraries at the week ends; until isolation I was working every Saturday and Sunday and rarely had a day off…
I am interested in bringing information literacy into the school and I used the last few days since isolation to research this; it has been a steep learning curve. I think I can do with all the help I can get…
