      Pros

      NYPL is well-equipped, has a broad-based collection with regard to subject matter and languages of publication, and age cohorts.

      Cons

      I feel that it would be helpful to NYPL as well as new staff members if there could be a new employee manual which could include a guide to using Sierra, especially. Something hands-on rather than in print or two-dimensional in its approach would be most helpful.

      Pros

      The onboarding process is attentive and informative. I feel prepared to work here and when I need support their is always someone to ask for help.

      Cons

      All of the platforms and departments to familiarize yourself with can be overwhelming.
