Hi there! My name is Kassie Penn, and I am the Youth Services Coordinator at the Ocean County Library. I have worked for the Ocean County Library since 2012.

Hello! My name is Kelsey and I am a Youth Services Librarian at the Ocean County Library.

As a Youth Services Supervisor I enjoy supporting my team and fostering a welcoming environment.

Jessica Schneider graduated from the Pratt Institute in 2012 with a Masters degree in Library and Information Science.  She has been the Head of Youth Services at the Fort Lee Public Library since 2020.

I have worked in libraries since 2013, starting in Circulation, then moved to Youth Services in 2015. Since becoming a manager, I've mostly focused on working with teens, though I oversee programming, collections, outreach, etc.

I am Cathy Black, Library Director at Orena Humphreys Public Library. Although I am new to the library world, I have nearly 45 years experience in serving the public with the goal of improving communities.

Hello. My name is Brandy Walthall. I began my library career in an academic library in Texas. I received my MLS from the University of North Texas in 2021.

Finding ways to nurture creative expression, peer support, and healthy fun in social settings are my top priorities in Teen Services.
