Your Hosts
Sarah Glad:
Sarah has been working for The County Library since 2015 in a variety of positions. Currently they are a Teen Librarian at the West Jordan Branch. Their favorite parts of the job are creating displays and helping people find books & movies that they want to read/watch! When they're not working, they love going to the movie theater, doing crafts, playing video games, and watching sunsets.
Leonides Ortiz:
Leonides (Lee) Ortiz is a Senior Librarian with the Lifelong Learning team. She has filled a few different positions here at the County Library since 2019. Originally from Upstate New York, Leonides has called Utah home for the last 8 years and is still in awe of the mountains. She enjoys a good cup of tea or coffee, British crime and baking shows, history and music documentaries, and will never say no to a concert. Poetry is her jam and if you let her, she will talk for hours about it and maybe share some of her own work as well.
Mieke Nielson:
Mieke has been working for the County Library in a variety of positions since 2013. She is currently the assistant manager of the Whitmore Branch. She also helps run the County Library's Liberterra D&D discord and Teen discord servers. When she's not working, Mieke enjoys gaming (both table top and video), reading, and cross stitching.
