Hi! My name is Emily & I'm the Youth Services Librarian at the Carmel Valley Branch of the San Diego Public Library System. I began this position in May of 2012 and this is my first full time Librarian gig. I'm still feeling like I'm settling in at my branch and have a lot to learn. The Carmel Valley Branch is the busiest branch in the system, so there is never a dull moment. I love it! I first discovered I wanted to become a Youth Services Librarian when I was teaching preschool a few years back. I loved doing daily storytimes and introducing children to the wonderful world of books. However, I wanted to work with teens too. As a Youth Service Librarian I get to work with all young people; it's the perfect fit. The children's programming at Carmel Valley has always had very large attendance. The teen programming, not so much. One of my immediate goals is to get those numbers up and get teens excited about coming into the library. Stay tuned!
