One year ago tomorrow, I began this Reel Librarians blog, and it’s been so. much. fun. As my mom (and fellow librarian) likes to say, “It’s an adventure!” And I definitely plan on continuing this adventure.

Having spent over a decade researching librarians in film and pop culture, this site has reenergized my focus. Although the bulk of my research is available in the links above, I have found the home page blog feature to be invaluable in keeping this topic fresh — hopefully, not only for me, but also for you, dear reader — and I like that this blog also makes use of both my English and Library Science degrees. 🙂

Whether a new fan or not, family member or not, passerby or what-have-you, what have YOU enjoyed so far from Reel Librarians? Please let me know and leave a comment while you’re here.
