Background

About Amanda Reid

I’m a Library Assistant and community-builder passionate about reimagining what a modern public library can be. Through my roles at Bloomfield, East Hartford, and Windsor Locks Public Libraries, I’ve contributed to innovative programming, community engagement, and inclusive service initiatives that make the library a cornerstone of connection.As a participant in Bloomfield’s Emerging Leadership Program, I’ve deepened my skills in collaboration, communication, and workplace wellness, all to better serve the public and support my colleagues.From storytimes to tech troubleshooting, I aim to make every interaction meaningful and every library visit an invitation to belong. My long-term goal is to continue my education toward an MLIS and grow into a leadership role serving children and families through creativity, empathy, and literacy advocacy.
