Jess strives to develop and refine library services so that library patrons can have the transformative experience of realizing that our vast and diverse world is more accessible than we think. A lock of Emily Dickinson’s bright red hair, spicy cumin squash pickles, and the Patriot Act are three things that impassioned Jess’s desire to become a librarian. What three things will challenge you to think differently about your world? |
