In our 10th episode of What the Family Studies?  we meet Amanda Freeman.  Amanda joined the Hamilton Wentworth District School Board in September of 2022 as the Manager of the System Learning Commons. Prior to joining the Board, she spent many years working in public libraries.  As the manager of the system learning commons Amanda’s goal is to continue to nurture a love of reading in our community and to spark joy in our library spaces.
