Jennie is returning to the CYBILS for the 8th time in her beloved Nonfiction category. She’s been a panelist and a judge and an organizer. A former youth services librarian and branch manager, she’s now a collection development librarian specializing in early literacy and readers advisory. On years when she hasn’t been doing CYBILS, she’s been on the YALSA Award for Excellence in Nonfiction for Young Adults and Outstanding Books for the College Bound. She sometimes blogs at Biblio File and reviews for School Library Journal, Library Journal, and Booklist. She’s all over social media as @kidsilkhaze and lives with her family in the DC suburbs.
