Meet Shirlington's New Branch Manager
We are pleased to welcome our new Branch Manager, Kimberly Knight, to Shirlington Branch Library. Kimberly has worked in public libraries for over 12 years--from urban Los Angeles to suburban Prince William County, VA. She joined the Arlington Department of Libraries in Fall 2007 as the Youth Services Collection Development Librarian. Kimberly believes the library should be the cornerstone of the community where people, information, cultural experiences and technology meet. She is passionate about public service, youth services, equal access to information, children's literature, and family literacy (as well as shoes). So, it's no surprise that Kimberly feels right at home at the Shirlington Library and in the vibrant Shirlington community. She's looking forward to the ride.
