Introduction

Hi everyone! My name is Robyn and I live on the east coast, in Quincy, MA, which is about 15 minutes south of Boston. I’ve been enrolled at SJSU since the fall of 2024 and only have 4 more classes to take, 2 this summer and 2 in the fall, before taking the e-portfolio class and (hopefully!) graduating next spring.

Right now I work full time at a small public library as a technical services librarian. I purchase and catalog new materials along with maintaining our serials collection. I love selecting new titles to add to our collection but opening the boxes of books when they’re delivered is one of my favorite parts of my job! I’ve always loved the smell of books, it never gets old.

Since I started the MLIS program my priorities have shifted a little. I started out wanting to remain in the technical services realm, but the more classes I take, the more I’ve become interested in library administration. Who knows where I’ll end up!

Here’s a picture of my dog, Benny, at his favorite beach just down the street from my house.
