Steve’s a librarian and teacher who has worked with learners and libraries from Fiji (as a Peace Corps Volunteer and Math Teacher) to Harlem (as a children’s librarian and school librarian). In the early 1980s he worked with other Peace Corps Volunteers to teach introductory programming (using Tandy TRS-80 computers) and has been using digital tools and toys for learning ever since. Most recently, as a doctoral student in the Information School at the University of Washington, he worked on a project on credibility and the Internet and taught in the MLIS program—both online and in physical classrooms. He also enjoys storytelling and reading aloud. When he worked for the New York Public Library he got to tell stories to hordes of children every summer in Central Park. His story hour audience has shrunk a bit recently—to one 2-year-old named Katie. He believes that folks who work in libraries are the best source of ideas and solutions to the challenges that we face in our libraries—and wants to help WebJunction members get their ideas, stories, and tips up on WebJunction for others to use.
