Sara’s many distinguished management positions have given her the opportunity to be a fierce advocate for youth services. Under Sara’s leadership at the Marin County Free Library over 9,000 library cards have been issued to students in the district while at the same time all fines for children’s and teen materials have been eliminated. She has been on the forefront of bringing 21st Century learning and emerging technologies such as 3D printing, makerspaces, and virtual and augmented reality to the library’s 10 branches. She created a campus in collaboration with the Novato Unified School District and Marin County Office of Education that includes one building for the library, media lab with virtual reality, video production and recording studios, and a large and active makerspace. Sara sees the library as the great equalizer and as a result she has created many community partnerships with groups such as Marin Promise, Marin Housing Authority, and more to address inequities in the County and do focused work on grade-level reading.
