Caroline
Department: STEAM services
Caroline has loved libraries since she could read, and she loves helping incorporate science, health, and arts into accessible and creative programs. One of her favorite things about public libraries (besides all the books!) is how libraries are safe and welcoming spaces for all people. She loves reading most genres, especially children’s literature, young adult, fiction with hints of magic, novels in verse, humanities nonfiction, and graphic novels. She graduated with a B.S. in Kinesiology from UNCG and is currently in their graduate program for Library and Information Science. When not in the library, Caroline loves spending time with her husband, her kids (who love to read, too!), her extended family, reading, hiking, walking, running, music, taking care of animals, and visiting parks and our NC mountains.
