| Krystal French - Early Childhood Librarian
Ms. Krystal has worked at the Barbara S. Ponce Library since 2001. Using her Early Childhood and Elementary Education background, she has enjoyed creating and presenting storytimes and programs for families and for all ages from birth to 5th grade. In January of 2017, she became our first Early Childhood Librarian. It is very hard for her to choose just one favorite children’s author but Karma Wilson is definitely one of them!
