Melissa Iamonico:
Melissa Iamonico's love affair with libraries officially started when
she worked as a page during her high school years...and the good news
is, that it has never stopped! She holds a B.A and M.A. from
Manhattanville College. These days, Melissa spends her worklife
between the Purchase Free and the Chappaqua Libraries. She feels that
to date, the best decision she ever made was attending library
school. A fringe benefit of this decision is the opportunity to
be in the company of all of the wonderful people she has met and been
fortunate enough to work alongside. Melissa looks forward to graduating
from Long Island University in December, and is very thankful to be the
recipient of this scholarship. In her free time, Melissa enjoys
traveling, seeing movies, and spending time with her friends and loved
ones.
