Information Woman!

I like to explore all kinds of information and how it impacts our lives, but for the next few months I am going to focus on the impact of the election of Trump as president. For millions of Americans who are in distress (that includes me) I'm going to explore how we can cope with the emotions engendered and take positive actions to make a difference--first in our own lives and then in the lives of our fellow citizens and in the future of our nation. Let's begin!

About Me

My photo
Jean Doolittle
I was born curious and found that surrounding myself with books and information made me happy and smarter! I had a long career in education, libraries and technology. Now retired from the work-a-day world, I stay connected to my love of books as a book-seller, Metronet board member and ALA RMRT Past President and of course book reader, listener and aspiring author.
