Hello,
Hannah here! While many of you may already know me as the Adult Services Librarian at Skidompha, I am super excited to announce my transition to being our new Teen Services Librarian! I admire teens so very much, and those years of our lives are so dynamic and filled with change and new experiences. I look forward to getting to know our local teen community.
I have loved my experience being the Adults Services Librarian, and working with our adult patrons. You have all been so nice, and have accepted me from day one. While I will miss you, I will be just a few feet away from the main circ desk and still seeing you regularly.
We are lucky to have a robust population of teens and tweens at the library. Whether making their way down the hill from Lincoln Academy or attending our homeschool hangouts, we always look forward to the energy and new perspectives that they bring with them as they enter our doors. They deserve a warm and welcoming environment to learn and grow; Our new teen room will be that community hub for them! An entire area recently redesigned with them in mind, Skidompha’s teen room now houses the entire young adult collection, multiple cozy nooks and corners for them to hang out, and will be the place of future teen programming. Most importantly, it will be an area where teens can relax and feel like they belong as valuable members of our community. I welcome you to stop by and check it out next time you’re in town!
Best,
Hannah
