Library & Information Science Professional
Hi, my name is Rachael and I am a Public Librarian currently residing in Chicago, IL. I hold a Masters of Library and Information Science from the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee and I have a background in Biological Sciences/English.
I am passionate about connecting people with information in all of its forms and promoting digital and information literacy to foster strong, informed communities.
Feel free to reach out to me for more information or just to say hello!
Trying to describe where I fall professionally in the realm of libraries and information science is tough. I am definitely multifaceted in my approach to librarianship.
My main passion is connecting others with the information and resources they seek and public libraries are fundamental community hubs that do just that.
Information can't be found if it is not discoverable- I have a love of information organization and presentation. Technical librarianship is key, even in the most granular sense, for ensuring that information is accessible.
