Library Journal 2010 Mover & Shaker Monique Delatte Joins Fullerton College Library
YALSA sponsors Delatte as 2011 Emerging Leader!
Grant-hounding, writing for Young Adult Library Services Journal, co-authoring a bibliography for Reference and User Services Quarterly, teaching an online course for the Young Adult Library Services Association, contributing to three books published by ALA, and ALA subcommittee work such as editing papers regarding library accessibility --- these are but a few of the activities in which Monique Delatte has engaged since beginning her library career in 2005. Profiled in 2010 by Library Journal as one of 50 movers & shakers, Monique is an expert in marketing library services to decision-makers. Since 2008, she has authored and co-authored nearly $75,000.00 in grants.
Monique has experience in both academic and public libraries, having worked for County of Los Angeles Public Library for five years as a children’s/teen/ reference services librarian, and for Rio Hondo College Library for two years as an adjunct librarian/grant writer. A Louisiana native and graduate of the iSchool at the University of Texas at Austin (where her focus was reference services), Monique brings a bit of southern charm to the William T. Boyce Library in her new role as acquisitions librarian.
Congrats for achieving tenure in 2010!
