Hello, Goodbye

So it's here at last: my final day as an employee at Sacramento Public Library. The past three years have been super cool, tons of fun, and a wonderful learning experience so I'm kind of sad but I'm also very, very excited about what lies ahead. This coming Monday, I start work as the City Librarian for the Stockton-San Joaquin County Public Library!

Even though my job at SPL afforded me the opportunity to participate in an extremely diverse range of activities (personnel, budget, policy/procedure development, construction/renovation projects, staff development, digitization, etc.), the most enjoyable part of the work was easily the people with whom I've worked. SPL is lucky to have so many fun, creative, and enthusiastic people who are committed to the highest level of service to the community. I love that and have had such a good time with so many people here.

Luckily for me, I've heard from several of the folks I know who are past Stockton-San Joaquin County employees that my new place of employment is just as fun and enthusiastic a place to work! So, while it is sad to say 'good-bye' to old friends, it fills me with anticipation knowing that I'm walking into such a positive organization where I'll make many new friends with whom I'll work to continue the tradition of outstanding Stockton-San Joaquin County libraries!
