Hamilton Mill Branch, Gwinnett County Public Library

Hello from the Gwinnett County Public Library! I'll be using this account in library programs to support our customers in learning about critical thinking, researching primary source, media literacy, and the use of Technology, including coding and basic internet usage. I also enjoy making edits to articles that discuss the history of Gwinnett County, Georgia.

As Librarians, we follow the guidelines of the American Library Association, including promotion of Freedom of information, multiple types of literacies, and increased access to resources; we stand against censorship.

My personal interests are in Genealogy Research (with a focus on the Southeastern United States), Historic preservation, Women's history, and Community Science (with a focus on Birdwatching).
