Introduction

Hello!!

My name is Shelby O'Malley and I am so excited to get started on my first blog! I am not usually one to put myself out there for the world to see so this is definitely out of my comfort zone!

A little bit about me...

I graduated from Valparaiso University in 2016 with a degree in Elementary/Special Education. I taught K-3 Special Education for two years until I realized how much I missed being in a library. Before teaching, I worked in the public library in my hometown for about 10 years (off and on through school) and LOVED every second of it. So, I decided to foster my love of reading and go back to school for a Masters of Library Science degree and am now over halfway through the program!

On a personal note...

I got married in June of 2018 to my wonderful husband, Toby. I love traveling, hiking at the Indiana state parks, reading, and watching baseball. You can find me all summer at the ballpark and all winter spending an exorbitant amount of time reading up on the latest stats for the Chicago MLB teams.
(Go White Sox!)

***Here's a picture of my husband and I at the Crosstown Classic where the Chicago Cubs play the Chicago White Sox. We cheer for opposite teams so it makes for an interesting marriage... :)


I am really looking forward to this class and learning more about readers' advisory!.
