Meet Daniel
Hi, I’m Daniel. I am a librarian at the Indian Trail, Hillyard, and East Side libraries. You will usually see me helping people find books and information, use computers and mobile devices, and learn something new in programs and classes. In the near future, I’m looking forward to more opportunities to work with the business community to find ways for the library to help their employees, customers, and the local economy.
In my free time, I try to get out and enjoy nature with my dogs or see live music, but it’s more likely that I will be home reading books about dogs or music.
