RL Person

I have been a Reference Librarian for over 20 years and before this I was in the medical field for over 10 years. 

I like writing about a variety of topics, especially articles that help people choose a career, find a college, and find the grants and scholarships that can help them fund that education.

I help maintain The College and Career Library on the Web. The website allows a lot of space for presenting a lot of information about careers, jobs, colleges, grants, scholarships, financial aid, and all kinds of information that you might find in a small library. In the past few years, I have never seen SO many people coming back to school in order to "retool."  I know that it is tough and I hope that the information that I provide will help.
