What I do at The New York Public Library
I work as the interim Branch Manager at the Francis Martin Library until renovations are completed at the Melrose Library. My aim is to ensure patrons are welcomed and successful at receiving information and having their questions answered. I like to ensure along with my staff that they can obtain the resources/books they seek at NYPL. I want all users to have a safe and pleasant encounter while visiting the Branch. All are welcome.

Who am I?
I have worked at The New York Public Library for over 30 years, serving various communities and working with such a diverse staff. Each experience has been fulfilling.
Advice for prospective candidates
If you enjoy working and learning, then NYPL is for you. Everyday is different and you get inspired by the patrons to be productive. It challenges you to continuously learn and grow with the community that you are providing resources to.
