Paul Rooney- Song of the Night Club Cloakroom Attendant

Paul Rooney is a practitioner in the public realm who worked with a night club cloakroom attendant and created a song about her work called "Lights Go On". Here is some of his work: http://www.axisweb.org/artwork.aspx?WORKID=37753

I found this to be an interesting piece of research in relation to my final project. This is because my project will involve me working with staff members in the library to shed some light on their job and highlight the importance of what they do. A similarity between my own work and Paul Rooney's is that both librarian and night club attendant can be seen as a menial and unimportant job by some. However both of these jobs involve talking to hundreds of people on a daily basis and coming in to contact with people from all over the world. This is why I want to raise awareness of what the library staff at UEL actually do and hopefully make people more appreciative.
