The purpose of this talk is to lead a discussion about employing Masters of Library and Information Science (MLIS) students in the role of librarian. Partnerships between a willing mentor and library student can prove beneficial to the student, mentor, participating library, and the profession. This talk will be presented from the perspective of a former library student and the library director who employed her. They will discuss what they learned in their two-year mentorship journey at a small, rural, two-year college in Missouri and share the conclusions they reached based on those experiences.
