Before starting my MLIS at San José State University, I wasn’t entirely sure what my beginning courseload was going to look like.

Before that announcement, I was taking full advantage of being out of my hometown: determined to befriend everyone on my dorm floor, saying “yes” to every invitation and taking my literature studies very seriously. So, I was pretty devastated when we got word that we wouldn’t be returning to campus anytime soon and would instead be confined to our childhood bedrooms.
