I value all of the professional development opportunities that ACRL offers as well as the opportunities to network with librarians from around the country.

As the director, I am responsible for promoting the library's services and resources as well as working with constituencies on campus to promote student success especially as it pertains to information literacy and research. Since I work at a small library and institution, I also teach students information literacy skills as well as provide individualized research instruction

I am lucky to have found a profession that is very supportive and continues to work to be better. I am especially glad to see our profession looking more critically at diversity, equity and inclusion within librarianship and how we can better support diverse librarians as well as how we can change to create more equitable structures and provide diverse resources.
