Joelle Block: “As I quickly am approaching 50, my desire to obtain a MLIS degree has led me to SJSU. I am so grateful for the opportunity this program offers especially for those who have found their love of libraries later in life. I am looking forward to spending the later part of my career working with children and families as they discover all the wonderful services the library offers.”
