esteemed library manager at TAC, as she shares her passion for

librarianship and the transformative power of literature.

Join us for an engaging episode in which Sue recounts her inspiring path

to librarianship, a journey fueled by unwavering support from her

family, mentors, and friends. With master's degrees in TESOL and teacher

librarianship, Sue's six years in Illinois proved pivotal, shaping her

into the dedicated library manager she is today.

During her time in Illinois, Sue had the privilege of engaging with the

Center for Teaching Through Children’s Books, where she formed a close

bond with the founder. This connection led to extraordinary

opportunities, including involvement with the prestigious Caldecott

Award committee and the esteemed American Library Association (ALA).

understanding of children's literature and solidified her commitment to

promoting literacy and learning.
