Technology
Some of my experiences fall largely into the realm of technological skill, such as authoring web content and even building this website. However, nearly every experience I’ve listed in other areas has a technological component to it. Rather than offer a lengthy narrative describing the context in which I’ve used each program or technology, I’ll simply highlight important ones on this page. If you would like to know more about my experience with any of these programs, or if your library relies on a program not listed here, please ask me about it! I’m sure I can help meet your library’s technology needs.
