I began as the UMMS librarian during the 2023-2024 school year. During my transition into the role, student and staff circulation has risen from the previous years. I have completed inventories, balanced a budget, weeded outdated fiction, spearheaded engaging passive programming, and implemented a self checkout station for students to build independence. I have continually supported staff by identifying appropriate resources and collaboratively teaching strategies that build literacy and research skills across all content areas. As part of the Book Reconsideration Committee, I helped update district policy. I completed generifying the library in the winter. With the support of my administration, I attained a grant to create small, collaborative spaces to support student and staff learning. My enthusiasm and attention to detail has made the library the central hub of the school.
