Things I am thankful for professionally:
- Freedom to develop and design a variety of programs with no real constraints (other than budget)
- Triumph over tough readers’ advisory and reference questions
- The time and work that has gone into developing my position into its current incarnation
- The flexibility to try new things depending on how our patrons needs/wants change over time
- Professional development opportunities
- A work space to call my own
- Quiet times to work alone at my desk and get in a productive zone
- Times for collaboration with amazingly talented and passionate people
- The colorful cast of wonderful people that I am blessed to call colleagues
- The kiddos who make what we do worthwhile
