About

I’m the Member Services Manager for NOBLE, the North of Boston Library Exchange, a consortium of twenty-eight Massachusetts public and academic libraries. Before joining NOBLE twenty years ago, I worked for the public libraries of Salem, Revere, Wakefield and Hamilton, Massachusetts, in a variety of positions including Children’s Librarian, Young Adults’ Librarian, and Technical Services Librarian. I’m the author of two books on librarianship, including Rethinking Reference: A Reference Librarian’s Practical Guide to Surviving Constant Change. I taught English for Future School in Dalian, China, in the summers of 2002, 2004 and 2006, and I’m currently a student in the Publishing and Communications program at the Harvard Extension School.
