Southwest Branch Welcomes Karla Giraldéz

Hello!

 My name is Karla Giraldéz, the new On-site Coordinator for the Southwest Branch Library.  I will have been with the Brown County Library ten years in December.  Before coming to Southwest I worked at the East Branch as the Children’s and Youth Librarian doing storytimes including the bilingual storytime in English and Spanish; planning programs and special events including the Summer Reading Programs for children and teens;  and working with the schools and daycares in that area.  I enjoy reading fantasy, children’s and teen fiction.  I play the guitar, speak Spanish, and am a big fan of Kakuro (cross addition puzzles).  I am very excited about being part of the close-knit Southwest Branch community.  I look forward to meeting everyone and providing the personal customer service for which this branch is known. Please stop in and introduce yourself!
