Cathy Maldonado

Sponsoring Organization: Monroe County Library System
Attending: Syracuse University

My name is Cathy Maldonado and I am from Brooklyn, N.Y. I attended undergrad at St. John Fisher College and graduated with a B.A. in English/Writing Concentration.

I am currently enrolled in the MLS program at Syracuse University. The program offers new insight and a challenging approach to Library Science. My interest in becoming a librarian began with a job at a public library in Brooklyn. It was interesting to see how everyone worked together to provide information to their community and take a genuine interest in doing so. Later, I continued to work in other areas in the library field. This included some archiving and interlibrary loan work which have become of great interest to me.
