Failure Confessions Episode 2: Mandi

Welcome to episode 2 of Library Failure Confessions from the League of Awesome Librarians. Our confessor in our debut episode is: Amanda (Mandi) M. Shepp. Mandi currently serves as the Coordinator of Special Collections & Archives in The State University of New York at Fredonia’s Daniel A. Reed Library Special Collections & Archives Division. She presents and writes on topics related to digitization and historical subjects within the realms of Spiritualism, Victoriana, and the Occult. When she’s not elbow-deep in materials from a bygone era, Mandi can be found homebrewing, experimenting in the kitchen, and enjoying life with her happy-go-lucky husband, Chris, and enormous Norwegian Forest Cat, Kujira. Library Failure Confessions is edited and produced by Sam Hansen and executive produced by Ashley Maynor.
