My favorite thing about ACRL is the communities of practice, especially as a librarian fairly new to the field. I've learned a lot by connecting with people through ACRL and through its many publications that I always look forward to. The people that make up this organization are passionate about the open exchange of ideas and information, advocacy, and collaboration, which is inspiring to me both professionally and personally.

As Collection Development Librarian, I support UAB's programs in the non-health sciences (we have another Collection Development Librarian for that!) by ensuring our collections meet and exceed their needs and continually evolve to anticipate their needs in the future. My goal is for our collections to support and reflect our UAB community in relevant, inclusive, and innovative ways.

There is so much room for growth and innovation in academic librarianship and in ACRL. It is a difficult but also rewarding time to be a librarian, and it is a privilege to have such a strong community of practitioners to connect with!
