Hello! For those I have not met yet, my name is Sandy Orman. I started as your Branch Manager here at the Brandon Public Library this past August. Libraries and informational freedom are my passions! I was a middle school librarian for 12 years, as well as a sixth-grade teacher of science and social studies. When I stopped teaching, I knew that I still wanted to be in an environment that nurtures reading in many ways, so I began working for the Central Mississippi Regional Library three years ago. This past May, I graduated from the University of Southern Mississippi with my master’s degree in Library and Information Sciences.
I live in Harrisville, MS, where I take care of my elderly parents. In my spare time, I enjoy hanging out with my Boston Terrier, Tripper, binge-watching good television, and of course, reading! My favorite genres are horror, science fiction, and memoirs.
Please stop by the library and introduce yourself! I am here for any questions, concerns, or comments that you might have regarding the Brandon Public Library. Warm Regards, Sandy Orman |
