00:00:00.533 --> 00:00:02.736
My name is Rajeev Sharma Busgeeth

00:00:02.736 --> 00:00:07.841
and I work as a senior librarian here at the Deichman Public Library at Furuset.

00:00:09.843 --> 00:00:14.014
The most important thing is probably to have an overview of everything that is happening,

00:00:15.148 --> 00:00:17.450
and to stay in contact with everyone involved.

00:00:17.851 --> 00:00:20.954
The best thing about the job is all the people you meet.

00:00:21.054 --> 00:00:24.090
To see people get something out of what we have to offer,

00:00:24.090 --> 00:00:26.459
it could be a Norwegian course,

00:00:26.459 --> 00:00:30.964
or that they attend an author visit, or pick up a good book recommendation.

00:00:30.964 --> 00:00:34.334
It is very rewarding to work directly with people.

00:00:34.734 --> 00:00:38.238
The reason I applied to Screen Cultures was because

00:00:38.238 --> 00:00:40.840
I already had a background in journalism.

00:00:41.041 --> 00:00:44.811
So it was to build on that, without fully knowing what I would do with it.

00:00:45.145 --> 00:00:48.548
Also, the program was in English.

00:00:48.548 --> 00:00:52.285
I think it suits international students very well.

00:00:52.485 --> 00:00:57.023
As mentioned, all the courses were in English, and then there is the aspect of social media

00:00:57.023 --> 00:01:01.461
It is important to gain perspectives from other places as well.

00:01:01.461 --> 00:01:07.801
Having people with academic expertise who can explain how things work elsewhere

00:01:07.801 --> 00:01:09.169
And then to share experiences,

00:01:09.803 --> 00:01:10.837
that is very valuable.

00:01:11.171 --> 00:01:15.408
Something I have noticed after finishing.

00:01:15.408 --> 00:01:19.479
That often, I have this critical perspective on many things.

00:01:19.479 --> 00:01:22.415
What does this actually mean? How does this fit?

00:01:22.615 --> 00:01:24.284
How does it not fit?

00:01:24.284 --> 00:01:29.355
And having this kind of mindset built into me makes it very easy

00:01:29.355 --> 00:01:33.960
to filter through all the requests we receive.
