Welcome

Hi, and welcome to the library!  I have been a librarian here at Briar Woods High School since the 2016/17 school year.  Before coming to BWHS I worked for eight years in the LCPS central office as the district's Library Services Specialist supervising the office of Library Central Services and overseeing the district's library management and library procurement systems.

Prior to moving here to Loudoun I spent 12 years as the Supervisor of Library Services for Portsmouth City Public Schools, six years as a middle school librarian and technology trainer for Virginia Beach City Public Schools, and one year as a high school teacher and librarian in Roanoke City Schools.  I've also worked as a college instructor at Radford University, as an adjunct instructor for Old Dominion University, and as a private consultant for the Library of Virginia, Radford City Public Schools, and a few different private companies.
 

I hope can help you in finding or using all of our wonderful library resources.  Please don't ever hesitate to ask for help or advice!!
