Location Laurel, Delaware, United States
Introduction I'm the Operations Assistant for Maryland AskUsNow!, and Statewide Coordinator for Ask a Librarian DE. Prior to this, I briefly tried my hand at directing a small, rural library in southern Delaware. I have also worked in Cecil County as an adjunct librarian for Cecil College, and for the Cecil County Public Library and in various capacities, from outreach to electronic services. I began Drexel University during the Spring quarter of 2004 and finished my MLS degree in December, 2006. I was also inducted into Beta Phi Mu in 2007. I have worked with middle school students, outreach, adult services, college students, online chat reference work, MLS-grad students, and the general public. My library work consists of planning, marketing, website design, library services, and library management - all focused upon how we, as a public library, can best serve our community. I constantly think about my writing! I've written two novels, poetry, short stories, and half of a script. Such is life!
