Instructor
My name is Mike Brlecic.
I’m just like you. I am a patron of the library.
And my use of the library throughout my life has led me to the subject of Library Science - the collection of methods used by librarians to make the library better - faster - easier - more fun and more practical and productive in the real world.
My years of study and learning - along with the lack of other courses on the library - encouraged me to set up this curriculum on Udemy.
I hope you enjoy it very much!
Thank you for your interest and support.
