Meet CSLA President Elect Nina Jackson

 

We at CSLA would like to introduce Nina Jackson as CSLA President Elect



About Nina

I've been the Teacher Librarian at the same middle school since 1995. My BA was in Music and Theater. Until we had to social distance I sang in my church choir. I love games and logic puzzles, especially the Nancy Drew computer games created by HER Interactive. Also, my TBR pile is actually a TBR garage.

Vision for CSLA

I hope to continue the work of the previous presidents in supporting and fighting for California School Libraries, and our certificated and classified librarians. This involves both educating legislators and administrators on the importance of a well-staffed school libraries and helping school library staff realize their importance and what they have to offer. 

Why did you join CSLA?

I originally joined CSLA because I assumed that was what was expected of me. But I have never regretted that decision. Besides the excellent PD that was specific to me as a Teacher Librarian, I have gained life-long friends. Participating as a presenter forces me to really analyze what I did and was a greater learning experience than just attending sessions. And my involvement in running CSLA gave me more confidence to be a leader in my school district.
