MAPL Trustees Announce Director

The Matawan Aberdeen Public Library is pleased to announce the appointment of Kimberly Paone as its new director, effective September 7, 2010.

Kimberly Paone received both her BA and MLS degrees from Rutgers University. She worked previously at the Elizabeth Public Library, most recently as the Supervisor of Branch Libraries and Teen Services. Kimberly is a recipient of the New York Times Librarian of the Year award, has taught at both Kean University and Rutgers University, has written many articles and contributed to several books about library services. One of her areas of expertise is service to teens, although Kimberly has enjoyed working with people of all ages, from toddlers to students to senior citizens, during her time in Elizabeth.

Kimberly is a resident of East Brunswick, where she lives with her husband and son. In her spare time, she enjoys reading (of course!), cooking, baseball, and roller coasters.

Thank you.
