Judy Becker close up
Name: Judy Becker. 
Title: Youth Services Librarian.
Education: Bachelor of Science in Occupational Therapy from UW-Madison.
Full or Part Time: Part time.
Job Duties: Youth services including story times (along with my guitar), family events, winter and summer reading programs. I also work at the circulation desk.
Favorite Thing To Do At Work: I enjoy family and children's events and crafts. I also enjoy "talking books" with kids and adults.
The One Book You Have Reread The Most: I have two: Jane Austen's Pride & Prejudice and J. R. R. Tolkien's The Lord Of The Rings.
Personal Info: I am married to the best guy in the world and have two amazing children in their thirties. At home, I am completely dominated by my golden retriever and tortoiseshell cat. I love being outdoors: camping, fishing, hiking. I play guitar and piano, and sing in the church choir. I have several undesirable qualities that I attribute to my red-haired ancestors. Of course I love to read!
Favorite Quote: "We're in a library! Books! The best weapons in the world! This room's the greatest arsenal we could have - arm yourselves!" ~Doctor Who
