Staff Introductions

I have worked with the Navajo County Library District going on six years. For four of those years, I have been the Library District Director. I have worked many positions in different types of libraries and acquired 17 years of Library experience.  My education experience includes a Library Technician certification, an Associates in Elementary Education, a Bachelor’s in English Literature. I am currently working on my MLS. I am a committed lifelong learner.

I am an avid reader and have been most of my life. I love everything about libraries. My passion is providing services that are needed by our communities, answering the hard questions, and solving problems. I am known as the Chaos Coordinator, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. 

My name is Alicia Kumar, and I am the Library Operations Supervisor here at the Navajo County Library District office! As an avid reader with a deep love for libraries, I’m passionate about supporting the essential role they play in our communities.

In my position, I assist the Director with the administrative operations of the district’s library system. I help oversee the integrated library system, ensuring it runs smoothly and efficiently, and I also coordinate and conduct training across the district to support staff development and consistency. I’m proud to contribute to the success of our libraries and the services they provide to the public.

Known as Lou to my nearest and dearest, I’m a born and raised nerdy bookworm! It is with tremendous gratitude that my life’s journey has returned me to one of my undying passions, library work.  I’m fluent in English and movie quotes. My brain is positively crammed with useless trivia and bizarre facts. I possess a dark sense of humor and an extremely loud voice.  I am the Lead Library Technician at NCLD, which means I am always BUSY! I process and catalogue books for our volunteer and tribal libraries, maintain and curate our rotating collections, repair damaged items, and help maintain our website and catalog. 

My name is Shannon Wilson. I am the Digital Literacy Technician for Navajo County Library District. I help community members build confidence with technology by teaching digital literacy classes and offering one-on-one support at local library branches. As a courier, I also make sure library materials—like books on hold—get where they need to go, delivering them to branches all across Navajo County so everyone has access to the resources they need.
