Librarian on the Loose

Share

My doctorate in communications design is from the University of Baltimore. They called me a few months ago and asked if they could interview me for an article in their alumni magazine; they were writing on the topic of information professionals.  I agreed, and their photographer came out to Port Discovery to take photos as well.  Here is a copy of the article:

In the meantime, I have been training staff at Port Discovery to present Mother Goose on the Loose programs, and they are doing a terrific job. I love watching the way presenters become more and more comfortable with the formal and the material in such a short period of time!
