Ben Bunnell (MSI '98)


Ben Bunnell

"At SI, you're being prepared for you know not what. The idea is not to learn specific skills, but to learn how to learn."
 
Before SI: Majored in English at Virginia Commonwealth University.

At SI: Worked for the Internet Public Library and was a digital information associate, developing Web-based slide presentations for Professor Michael Cohen.

After SI: Started out as a research librarian for Avalon Investments, a venture-capital firm, which allowed him to combine the education he earned pursuing his MSI and an MBA from the U-M Ross School of Business. Now is a library partnerships manager at Google Book Search (formerly Google Print). One of his recent projects was working with the University of Michigan Library on a massive digitization project that will result in more than seven million volumes being scanned. In fall 2005, Ben helped launch Google's Librarian Outreach program with a newsletter that now reaches more than 20,000 readers.
