Karen McIntyre, USA, Primary, Library

I am a storyteller and teacher-librarian. I was a public librarian for ten years prior to making the move to school library. I discovered the Internet in 1993 when a high school junior showed it to me on the computer which controlled our school’s satellite dish.

I began this journey with a 300 baud modem and a belief that curiosity and the availability of information would make a huge difference for my high school students.
