Here’s a bit about new MAHSLIN member Karen Lamson:

I recently moved to Worcester to take a Reference and Instruction Librarian position at Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences, Worcester campus. Librarianship is a second career for me having spent 20 years in chemistry laboratories analyzing pharmaceutical products in Western New York. I graduated from the University at Buffalo in 2006 with my MLS and I haven’t looked back. What a wonderful career choice this has been. I look forward to working with MAHSLIN members to create a better learning environment for inquisitive minds. My areas of interest are Evidence-Based Practice, Health Information Literacy, and Embedded Librarianship. I like to cross-stitch, visit museums, and take long hikes with my Rhodesian Ridgeback (Central Massachusetts has wonderful trails and we have only just started to explore)!  I can’t wait to meet you all!
