About

My name is Amy Broadmoore. I am a K-5 school librarian, library science graduate from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Chapaign, Cybils judge and founder/instigator of International Book Giving Day. (International Book Giving Day – February 14th – Give a book to a child!) I have three children ages eleven, eight, and six.
