Before I interned at the picture book library, I’ve got to the library once in my sophomore year. In a required course, our professor asked us to go to there to share a picture book with the children. I remember when I got to the library I was quickly fascinated by its castle-like exterior design. As I stepped into the library, its spacious and well-lighted environment gave me a sense of relaxation.
在我到繪本館實習前，我曾在大二時來過繪本館一次。那是一堂必修課，教授要求我們到繪本館與孩童們分享繪本。我記得我剛到繪本館時就被它城堡似的外觀設計所吸引，而當我走進館內，裡面寬敞明亮的環境有一種使人放鬆的感覺。
When my group members and I stood at the center stage with people around us, I was quite nervous about the unfamiliar scene, but at the same time I was also excited about to give our group’s performance. During that thirty minutes’ performance, I found it terrific to have everyone focus on you for we had not waste many of our preparing hours and even for the sense of accomplishment filled in our hearts. Because of that valuable experience, when I became junior and faced the task of choosing my internship, I intended to intern at the picture book library. Finally I decided to go to the picture book library on my senior intern’s recommendation. It is great that our supervisor Shindy provided the opportunity for interns like my classmates and I.
接著，當我們整個說故事小組站在場地中央，四周被人圍繞著的時候，我不禁對這陌生的環境產生緊張的情緒，但同時我也因為即將要開始我們的表演而覺得興奮。在說故事的那半個小時裡，被大家注視著的感覺讓我覺得一切的準備都沒有白費，心中也充滿著成就感。而就是因為這個難得的經驗，當我大三開始尋找實習單位時，我就想到了繪本館！而在經過學長姊的推薦後，我終於下定決心要爭取機會到繪本館實習。很感謝沈館長給我和我的同學機會到繪本館實習。
During the internship, we have learned many things which could apply in future careers. Moreover, all of us also got our own memorable experiences which could not learn in classes. From the very beginning to the end, picture book library has hold a series of programs to let children have fun while learning new things.
在實習的這段期間，我們學到了很多可以應用在未來職業上的事物，而這段寶貴的經驗是我們在課堂上學不到的。從實習初到實習末，繪本館辦了一系列的活動讓孩童參加，希望他們能從學習中獲得樂趣。
Collecting the Children Picture Book Recommendation List
收集繪本書單
Because the picture book library got the budget for buying new picture books, our task this time was to collecting the recommendation list. At first, I had no idea how to collect the picture book recommendation list. Thus, our supervisor suggested that we could base on some picture book’s awards to choose picture books. That gave me an inspiration of doing this task.
因為繪本館獲得經費補助採買新繪本，館長希望我們協助蒐集新書單。起初，其實我對蒐集書單沒什麼概念，還是在館長建議我們可以以一些繪本獎項作為依據來選擇新書之後，我才對這個任務有些頭緒。
The very first recommendation list I collected was top 10 best sold picture books on Eslite online bookstore from 2000 to now. In the beginning, I thought it was just a piece of cake, but the lack of communication with my supervisor made me mess up my task. Because I misunderstood supervisor’s instruction, she wanted me to collect the Chinese version rather than the English version. Then I learned a lesson that no matter what you do, you must take it seriously.
我的第一份書單是蒐集誠品網路書店從西元2000年至今每年銷售前十的繪本，我剛開始覺得這就是動動手指就能完成的事，但因為我沒有理解好館長的意思，我並沒有做好這份書單，這讓我了解到無論做什麼事，都一定要細心以對。
The second and third time I was more attentive and started to be on the right track. My most impressive part was collecting Taiwan’s native picture book authors’ works. It took times to collect all their works, but during those hours, I was repeatedly amazed by our native authors’ works. The element of Taiwan’s local culture is the main point of the whole books and it makes these Taiwanese works so different from other foreign picture books.
而在接下來的第二、三份書單的蒐集活動中，我漸入佳境。在我負責的幾份書單中，最有印象的是台灣原創繪本的蒐集。我覺得國內原創繪本之所以特別，是因為作品中蘊含著許多台灣本土元素，這使人產生親切感，而這種感覺，是國外繪本無法帶給我們的。
Recording 10 Picture Books and Making them into Audiobooks
錄十本繪本並將它們製作成有聲書
This year picture book library has begun to promote audiobooks to help children get into the stories, our supervisor asked each of us to record ten children picture books and to make it into audiobooks and then upload the files on YouTube. Before this task got started, I was excited about the idea to record picture books for it is something to do with our specialty. Nonetheless, after the task begun, it was harder than I used to think, and it was funnier than I used to expect.
今年度館方開始推展繪本有聲化，欲藉由有聲書讓孩童能更融入故事情境。因此館長希望我們每個人都錄十本館藏書籍然後再將它們製作成有聲書上傳到YouTube。在我還沒開始錄音前，我對這項任務感到很興奮，因為它與我的專業科目有關。但開始錄音後，一些小問題接踵而來，可是我還是覺得能夠錄音是件很有趣的事。
During these weeks of recording works, I had to adjust my feelings to fit in these ten different stories, and I had to try to figure out the tone of every role in these stories. At times it was also hard for the mutation of sounds while recording. In addition to the recording part, the picture books it selves also provided me an implication to think deeper. I was grateful for the task our supervisor gave us.
就像我在錄音時聲音會因不同角色而轉變來轉變去，而且我必須去揣摩故事中每個角色合適的聲調來配音，這讓我有點小頭痛，但卻又覺得十分有趣！除了錄音的部分，我覺得繪本本身所包含的寓意也讓我回味再三，真的很感謝館長發想了這個新活動。
Programs to respond the World Book Day 2014
響應2014世界書香日活動
To respond the World Book Day 2014, the picture book library had designed a series of programs for participants to have fun. From April 23rd to May 28th, every Wednesday afternoon each of us was in charge of two children to accompany them and help them to do some arts and crafts.
為響應2014世界書香日，繪本館設計了一系列的活動邀眾人同樂。從4月23到5月28的每個禮拜三下午，我們給個實習生都會分別跟兩個小朋友一組，在她們做手工藝時從旁協助。
I think be with children is an art. Because you should use some skills to let them listen to you, or tell them what should do or what shouldn’t do. I like to talk to them because their thoughts are simple and pure. It made me relaxed when talking to them. During these six weeks, I have got such a precious experience that I would never forget. It is really nice for both of us to get through all the problems and made us become different from before.
我認為跟小朋友相處是門藝術，因為你必須運用點小技巧去跟她們溝通，讓他們樂意與你交流。而能跟小朋友交流是一件很棒的事，因為他們的思想很天真單純，在跟他們交談時會覺得心情很輕鬆自在。我想，這六星期的相處中，這些珍貴的回憶我會一直記在心裡。我和小朋友們從一開始的磕磕絆絆到後來的相處愉快，我們雙方都逐漸從這些寶貴的經驗中成長與改變。
Finally, I had to say that I really appreciated that our supervisor could give us such a great chance to intern at picture book library. In this semester, I had met some bottlenecks while doing the tasks our supervisor gave us, and I found it important to keep your enthusiasm while dealing with these matters. This is the most precious thing I’ve learned during this internship, and my teacher was those children. They are so amazing that they could usually stay positive while seeing things, and I was impressed by their endless energy. Picture book library provided me a great deal of valuable memories, I would always cherish the days I spent in this place.
最後，我要再次感謝館長給我們這個機會到繪本館實習，並謝謝我的實習單位繪本館帶給我許多美好的回憶！在這個學期的實習中，我曾遇到一些瓶頸，而度過瓶頸最好的方法我現在已經找到了！我認為關鍵就在於做事時須保持熱忱！這也是我在這次實習中所得到最寶貴的經驗，而教會我這點的就是小朋友們，我發現孩子們在看待事物時，通常都會保持著一種樂觀積極的態度，在他們身上，彷彿有用不完的活力，而我看著看著，也不禁被他們的正能量所感染！
