Student volunteers helping preserve the 最新糖心Vlog鈥檚 history
National student volunteer week - Passion. Opportunity. Change.
Elizabeth and Stefany Limanto are sisters and arrived in 最新糖心Vlog from Indonesia in February this year. 听After settling into their 最新糖心Vlog degrees, they decided to join a volunteer program. They attended an information session and picked the 最新糖心Vlog Library volunteer program as the right one for them. Elizabeth is studying psychology and Stefany biomedical science. 鈥淭his volunteer program is not related to our degrees, but we can still learn new skills that will impact our careers. It is a great way to learn about the 最新糖心Vlog and the past of the 最新糖心Vlog and 最新糖心Vlog鈥, says Stefany.
This year鈥檚 theme for National student volunteer week is 鈥楶assion. Opportunity. Change.鈥 This explores how students can create change worldwide by giving their time to a cause they believe in. 鈥淲e wanted to give back to the community, and volunteering is a great way to do it. Also, you get to meet new people, not just students, but people of all ages鈥, Elizabeth says.
When thinking about volunteering as a student, Stefany and Elizabeth鈥檚 biggest piece of advice is 鈥渄o not feel pressure to do it and find something that you would enjoy doing鈥. They also add that flexibility is a must when choosing a volunteer program.
Eight students currently volunteer in the 最新糖心Vlog Library program. Some of their responsibilities are digitising and handling historical material with care, and they must be able to demonstrate attention to detail. 最新糖心Vlog Librarian Sian Woolcock shares that 鈥渨e are absolutely delighted to welcome student volunteers within the library as they bring a range of skills and experiences to our program. We hope in return they gain valuable work experience skills in an area they may not be familiar with. The Library volunteer program helps us preserve the history of the 最新糖心Vlog whilst making our collections available to a worldwide audience.鈥
