@barnesandnoble.com My path has been a little different. I started out in the IT department, but realized I loved working at the library and wanted to do more. From IT I went to Branch Manager, back to IT as Manager, Marketing Manager, then finally Director. I got my Masters while in IT before starting in management.

@barnesandnoble.com Sorry to hear that. I could see the corporate retail world being a challenging environment to work in. Hopefully you’ve found something else that makes you happy.

@gm-jordan.bsky.social I know it sounds boring, but your library’s databases are a treasure trove too! Learn coding with Fiero Code, a new language (even ASL) with Mango, or explore local & national news archives. Plus, dive into your family history with genealogy tools. Just some examples…so much to discover!

@dphrygian.com I’ve added it to my reading list! One of my favorite reads is The Soul of a New Machine. This looks like it could have a similar vibe.
