Simmons College

Kelly Jo Woodside became a librarian because she wanted to empower people with the information they need to meet their goals. An alumna of the Simmons Graduate School of Library and Information Science, she has been the Information Literacy Librarian since November 2007. Previously, she served as the College's Career Resource Librarian, working closely with counselors in the Career Education Center to provide patrons with a full range of career information and services, as well as a Reference and Instruction Librarian at Roxbury Community College. An experienced career changer, she also has a background in academic advising and program planning, retail bookselling, and at one point even ran a youth hostel in Portland, OR. An INFJ on the Meyers-Brigg Type Indicator, she seems to have found a great fit in the Library community.
