Project Assistant: Helen Linda (celestihel@gmail.com) is the Records Analyst for the Vermont Agency of Transportation, her first job outside of libraries in 17 years. Since Records Management is library- adjacent, it doesn’t feel to her like a huge departure. She has never taught as a capital “T” Teacher, but began presenting on conference panels a decade ago, which led to solo conference presentations, which led to regular student library orientation classes, which led to designing instruction formally in her newest role in state government. You just never know where the journey will take you.
