Educational Objective:
My objective is to provide a safe and comfortable learning environment where students
will develop an appreciation for learning and inquiry. Through the promotion of library
resources, including literature in various print and digital formats, I hope to encourage
students to become lifelong readers and seekers of knowledge. Lastly, I aim to help
students acquire the indispensable information literacy skills they will need to become
productive citizens in the 21st century, allowing them to lead successful, meaningful
lives beyond the classroom.
