I meant to write this post a month ago but what a whirlwind this last month and a half has been!
I applied for a promotion as a Youth Services manager within the same library system and was offered the position! So, in the last month, I stopped teleworking, became a library supervisor, and moved to a different library. While my community branch was one of the busier small branches, I have moved to the busiest regional branch in my library system.
The return from teleworking has been challenging (Mostly on my body! Wow, did my body forget how much collection work can build arm muscles!) it has also been fun and rewarding. I missed working with patrons and other staff.
The branch I am at now was actually the first library I ever *officially* worked at, so it was a homecoming of sorts. We are not quite working with patrons in the traditional sense, but we are providing virtual and curbside service. Both of which are keeping us just as busy, if not more so, than before!
My posts may be slightly more sporadic going forward, especially as we continue to adjust to serving our community during COVID, but I am excited for this next step in my library career!
