I have worked in libraries for over 30 years. I began working part-time at our local library. After a few years, I became a full time library staff member.\u00a0 My children literally grew up in the library!\u00a0 As the children grew older, I went back to school to get my Master\u2019s in Library Science, which would make me an \u201cofficial\u201d librarian. While I was in library school, I became interested in academic libraries, and worked as an intern at UC\u2019s DAAP Library. The library director was a wonderful mentor to me, and we’re still good friends. I enjoyed guiding students and assisting faculty to find resources. I worked in two other colleges before I came to Clermont College in 2007.<\/p>\n

As Reference Librarian, I love to help students find what they need for their projects. I especially like to surprise them by showing them the many resources the library has to offer.\u00a0 I try to be as friendly and helpful as I can, so they remember they can come to the library as a space and if they require assistance, there is a friendly person to help them.<\/p>\n

When I’m not at work, I love spending time with my grandchildren, especially when we draw, paint and read! Okay, I might have to include playing Dance Revolution, too!<\/p>\n

Something that might surprise you about me is that my brother and I were once protected by Pinkerton guards.<\/p>\n

Now for a few of my favorite things:<\/p>\n

Ohh! So many to choose from!<\/p>\n

Book: Mama Day<\/p>\n

Music: Eric Clapton<\/p>\n

TV Show: Mad Men<\/p>\n

We’re here to help-<\/p>\n
