Contact me via Twitter: @novanews19 or phone: 03 9584 4211.See More

- Do you work in the education sector? What is your role?
- As the former Head of Library at two Independent Schools in Melbourne, Victoria, I am currently working part-time as a Teacher Librarian in the senior campus of a large independent school, enjoying the chance of taking a back seat in the running of a school library while, in my spare time, exploring cyberspace including the joys of blogging, tweeting and other wonders of Web 2.0 technology.

- In 2010, I completed the 12 week VicPLN program mentored by Judith Way, of the School Library Association of Victoria. Completion of this course was a turning point in both my discovery and involvement in cyberspace as well as my career path. Today I am the author of two blogs, one, NovaNews - http://novanews19.wordpress.com/ - begun during this course, is a reflection of my ongoing learning journey while the other, BevsBookBlog - http://bevsbookblog.wordpress.com/ - reflects my passion for literature and young adults. .
Other innovative practices have included the staging of Literary Festivals and Literary Events to entice members of the school community, particularly young adults, to the joys of reading and literature.
