Branch Manager
Oshawa Public Libraries, Ontario, Canada
Beckie has gathered the courage to make some big leaps throughout her career, and feels she is in the mid-career stage now. She left and re-entered public libraries having worked for a non-profit organization for 6 years in between. She worked as a children’s librarian/supervisor, manager, CEO, library clerk, and back to management (in that order), and sees each role as a learning experience whatever the title. Beckie has consistently pursued opportunities to help build her network, experiences and her career. She has volunteered and contributed to multiple committees and board of directors both inside and outside the library field. She is currently enrolled in the APLL (Advanced Public Library Leadership) program as she continues to learn and grow for the next opportunity.
