Hey everyone, welcome back to the screen running life. I'm Meg Lafour.

And I'm not Lori McKenna. She's actually on a very important deadline right now.

Of course, you all know we're working writers and that happens.

Producer Jeff is here stepping in and today we are thrilled to be chatting

with three very important people from the Writers Guild Foundation Library.

We're joined by Lauren O'Connor,

Harvey Barrios, and Hillary Swatch.

The WGAF library provides tons of incredible resources for free,

and there are a lot of folks that don't know about it. So today we're going to shine a light on the incredible service that the WGF provides.

So real quick as I mentioned, I would love if all three of you could introduce yourselves and please kind of

mention your role with the WGF library. Sure I can go my name is

Javier Barrios and I'm one of the librarians here and in the library My main job really is to be in the library from the time that it opens, from 11 to 6, most weekdays. And then another duty of mine is to request scripts because that's how we get scripts into the library from different shows to film.

And then, you know, help patrons all day along with any need anything they need to read, any tips, you know, tips advice, things like that.

Great.

And I'm Lauren O'Connor. I work with Javier. I basically do the same thing that he does. But I'm a little more in terms of kind of our like educational initiatives and and being really active on our blog and that kind of thing.

So I help patrons, yes and request scripts, yes, but I also create a lot of like online resources and stuff for patrons too.

Awesome. And then Hillary.

I'm Hillary Sweat and I am the archivist at the foundation and so I work with

collections and scripts from you know older people are people that have passed.

And I do a lot of research and just know a lot about things

from 100 years ago.

Not, not, I'm okay with today,
