About

Hi! I'm Emma. I have a lot of interests.

At the library, I spend my time doing library outreach, covering service desks, planning programs, and meddling in all kinds of library-related things. I supervise several pages and library volunteers, so I'm a little fanatical about all the ways that books get back on the shelves accurately and efficiently. I advocate for anything that makes staff's lives easier--I've rallied for NEW stickers on books, cheat sheet forms for mending/damaged items, and a binder with all our workflow instructions. Dream job: library efficiency consultant. 

In my free time you can find me listening to podcasts, baking, or playing roller derby. Current obsessions include: 99% Invisible, Code Switch, GBBO, and a slew of bleak murder shows.

I love any chance to be silly with my coworkers and dress up for holidays.
