Wow, Jane! Congratulations, I remember the moment we met oh so many years ago at Region 6's EdCamp. You've been one of my "go to" librarians ever since. Enjoy the honor that you certainly deserve.

 

Best,

I'm sorry if I missed this being shared, but I was so excited to see CT's own Jane Martellino was recently honored with ALA's "I Love My Librarian Award". Congratulations, Jane, on this wonderful and well-deserved achievement! (1 of 10 librarians recognized in the nation!) You have shared so much with CT's school librarians, and inspired many of us!
