ALA Divisions:

Creative, determined, free spirited.
As a curriculum librarian, I am reading George M. Johnson's "We Are Not Broken."
Growth, interconnectedness, progress.
I appreciate the variety of programming, from theory to practice. It allows me to expand my thinking and cultivate opportunities to transfer those ideas to my work environment and service philosophy.
I think I'm a facilitator for change at my organization.
The best part about working as an academic library is being in an environment where creating and questioning ideas is a given. As a librarian, I love being a part of the process by promoting and procuring resources to facilitate knowledge production. Working in a curriculum library gives me the opportunity to learn and work in multiple worlds: with researchers, students, practitioners, and the university community. I also get to play. For example, I dabble in picture books and math manipulatives to help pre-service, yet also understand the best practice to use from theory.
