Adrienne De Luna didn’t set out to find her library career–it found her.
And while she wasn’t looking for a problem to tackle, the Luddy Indianapolis student found one at the Whiting Public Library–and was able to solve it, thanks to the generosity of donors throughout the community.
A new career and a degree path
“I sort of fell into being a librarian,” says De Luna, who began working at the Whiting Public Library in extreme northwestern Indiana after a 20-year career in online health care in Chicago. She is now earning her master’s degree in library and information science (MLIS) through the Luddy School.
