Resident Librarian
Susan Arslanian
Welcome to the library! My name is Susan Arslanian, and I have enjoyed being a school librarian in Birmingham Public Schools for the last several years. I graduated from Eastern Michigan University with a Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education. After being an elementary school teacher for a couple years, I went to Wayne State University and received my Master’s Degree in Library and Information Science.
I enjoy traveling and reading in my free time. I love to help students explore their interests through library resources. I look forward to sharing my love of reading and research!
