Hi I'm Ori! I'm the Instruction and Reference Librarian here at MSOE.
Here's what you need to know:
How to pronounce my name: OR-ee OH-Mal-ee
My pronouns: They/Them/Theirs
My honorific: Mx. (pronounced: "Mix")
I earned my MLIS degree in 2017 from UWM and have been working in libraries since 2014. I have experience with public, academic, and medical libraries from working circulation to leading departments and working with doctors and clinical nursing staff. My wheelhouse skills include: instruction, reference/ searching, and book recommendations! On top of being a librarian - I was a bookseller at Boswell Books for many years and helped run author events. I adored my time there and will always tell folks to go visit their local bookstore!
In my free time I love to read novels (shocking I know), knit, or take on anything creative. While I may look like a homebody (and part of me totally is) I love to travel and have been to over 7 different countries. I'm a passionate crafter and always looking to learn something new!
If you see me around the library - please feel free to say hello!

If you're an instructor looking to set up a library searching session or specialized class please let me know. I'd be happy to work with you!
