I haven't recently applied for a ghostwriting position, but I know someone who applied for a library job and I found a nice cover letter.
There are few privileges in life than to be able to return to one's place of youth and pursue a lifelong career of meaningful vocation.
I would like the opportunity to be able to do just that by applying for a Social Sciences Librarian position with your school. After twelve years of absence, I long to round up my career and use my skills and competencies in ways that make meaningful contribution to a community which I share a history with.
My love for books has sown in me the desire to pursue information science as a career. I have never wavered from this passion and it has informed all my academic and professional choices. I graduated with a BA in Humanities from Perkins College in 2006. Two years after, in 2009 I earned my MA in Library and Information Science from the University of West Virginia. Right now I am now working on finishing my MA in History from the American Science University. I should be able to finish all the requirements of this online course by December of 2010.
For six years I have worked as an archivist/personal assistant to a high profile and nationally prominent retired lawyer. My most important job was to organize and properly archive some 100,000 documents for donation to a college library. I have just completed a 4-month librarian internship at the National Science Public Library in Virginia.
My professional training in library science is anchored on my background in the social sciences. With and undergraduate in Humanities and a forthcoming MA in History and Science, I believe that I am a perfect fit to the position, serving as the guide to a collection of printed knowledge and curating the materials that would best address the needs of both teachers and students.
I am available for an interview at your convenience, and if accepted, can start immediately. I truly look forward to this opportunity, to fulfill my life's passion and come full circle.
Thank you very much.
