I’m Elementary Library Mama and I’m so glad you stopped
by! I’m currently heading into my
eighteenth year as an elementary media specialist at a K-5 school in the Midwest. I have a Bachelor of Science in Elementary
Education and a Masters of Arts in Library Information Science. Prior to becoming a media specialist, I
taught both second and third grades.

I’m married to my college sweetheart and we are the proud
parents of a teenager, a preteen, and a child who thinks she’s a teenager! 😉 When my kids were little, they always called
me “Mama” instead of “Mommy”. I am so
blessed to be a Mama that I wanted to incorporate this word into my blog
title. Thus, Elementary Library Mama was
born!

Obviously, I am a strong believer in the importance of
school libraries and librarians/media specialists. School media specialists are first and
foremost, TEACHERS. We constantly strive
to be knowledgeable in literature trends, curriculum, and the latest
technology. We provide a nurturing
environment where students can come to pursue their own reading interests and
learn critical information literacy skills.
We really are the “heart” of the school!
