About the roving librarian

There are probably more of us than you think.

I travel, as a teacher-librarian, from school to school – the “outlying school” circuit – in Teton County, Wyoming, managing and teaching classes in grades K-5 (and one K-6) schools. The schools have as few as 14 students, in total, and as many as 200.

One school is 18 steps from my front door and another is a mountain pass and 1.5 hours away, in the summer, before the snow.

The others are somewhere in between.

I have 12 years of library experience (mostly in rural libraries and library-building), and was certified to teach in Wyoming for this position. I teach between 18-21 classes a week. I have worked in public libraries, school libraries, academic libraries, a law library, and a prison library.

My car is always full of books.

I have a Master’s Degree in Library and Information Science from the University of Alabama. I completed my MLS last year.
