I am Librarian/Director of the Piedmont Public Library in Piedmont, West Virginia. I have been there for almost 43 years, yes since I was 13 years old!!! I do not have my Library Science degree, but I have taken many courses along the way and have also taken online courses to get my degree. I have been taught a little about Wikipedi, but not a whole lot, I have much to learn. I hope this course will make me more aware of what all I can do with Wikipedia in my library to help my patrons.
Outside of the library, I am the mother of a 23 year old daughter, with an AA in Pre Physical Therapy. I was a bartender for 35 years, I just recently gave that position up. I am an avid West Virgina Mountaineers and San Francisco 49ers fan. I love spending my summers at my place on the river in Springfield, WV along the Potomac River. I love float trips with my family and friends and nights sitting around a big fire.
Conflict of Interest Statement
I, User:Pboggs61, am the librarian/director of the Piedmont Public Library, a non-profit library dedicated to serve Piedmont, WV and the Tri-Towns area, and helping to provide broad access to library resources. I have not yet attempted any edits, but when I start, I will not make any that would not be beneficial to the Wikipedia goals set.
I would like to improve access to important, free, scholarly sources held in libraries and archives, so, as I begin editing, I will modify my behavior based on problems cited by other editors. If, at any time, my editing happens to conflict with other Wikipedia guidelines, could the other editors be so kind as to contact me, without hesitation, through my user talk page, if my edits appear to be going against this declaration.Pboggs61
