In the past I served on the CCSA board and a local <br /> Preschool board. I am a member of the NAEYC. I believe libraries are an integral part of <br /> their community, a safe and inclusive environment. <br /> Past Service on Orange County Advisory Boards: <br /> None <br /> Boards/Commissions applied for: <br /> Chapel Hill Library Advisory Board <br /> Please explain how your background, education and experience is relevant to this board <br /> I presently work part time at the Orange County Library and would like to work more closely with <br /> supporting the work libraries do each day. <br /> Please explain your reasons for wanting to serve on this board <br /> As stated earlier, libraries provide integral services in communities. Libraries have always <br /> offered books but over the years also created safe places for all. Libraries have often been the <br /> first organizations to see and meet social needs by disseminating information and meeting <br /> needs. <br /> How would your particpation on this board contribute to the diversity of viewpoints? <br /> For the last 14 years I have worked with families whose life struggles are very different from my <br /> own. Listening to others and actually hearing what they say has taught me so much and also <br /> made me aware of my own biases. I see this has a way to advocate for books and getting <br /> literature to all. My full time work is with very young children and building a love of books and <br /> reading is a daily goal. <br /> Do you have any personal or business interest(s) that could create a conflict of interest <br /> (either real or perceived) if you are appointed to this board? <br />
