Nancy Claypool | Branch Manager

Pearl Public Library

Nancy recently joined the CMRLS team, and we are so happy to have her at our Pearl branch!  

Here's more from Nancy:

1. What is your favorite part of working in the library?

My favorite part of working in the library is helping patrons through desk work and programming. I love seeing directly how the library enriches the lives of others.

2. Was there a book that made you love reading?

I fell in love with the Harry Potter series when I was little and it opened a whole new world for me. I felt more confident to read larger books. Before I dared read bigger books, I really enjoyed the Magic Tree House series and the Boxcar Children series.

3. Tell us one e-resource you wish more people knew about.

I wish more people knew about hoopla. Hoopla provides accessibility features and connects patrons with materials even if they aren't physically able to visit us at the branch. This digital resource has ebooks, audiobooks, and even movies available for checkout for FREE with your library card! Find out more at https://www.hoopladigital.com/. All you need is your library card!

4. What do you like to do when you're not at the library?

I love to read, paint, write poetry, play Webkinz, and try out lots of good food when I am not at the library. I also watch TV sometimes, especially when I get hooked on a new show. Currently, I am watching the Last of Us.

5. What is your idea of the perfect vacation?

My idea of a perfect vacation is a trip to the beach--any beach. I adore swimming, building sand castles, and getting some sun.

6. What is your favorite holiday?

Halloween, because I think dressing up is really fun.
