Mrs. Rosemary O'Connell              Library Director        roconnell@ccsd89.org

I am elated to be working as Glen Crest’s librarian! A native of Minnesota and graduate of St. Mary’s University of Minnesota, I have been a Chicago-area resident and Chicago sports fan for more than 25 years. I have experience at the elementary, middle, and high-school levels, and received my Masters of Library and Information Science from Dominican University in 2014. I joined Glen Crest in 2015.

My husband and I are the parents of two adult sons.  In addition to cheering on the Bears, in my free time I love to travel, spend time with family and friends, attend plays, walk my dog, and READ!

I am so excited to be working full time in the library this year! Last year I worked half in the front office, half in the library.  I love giving book recommendations out to the students, making displays, and hearing how the students liked the books they’ve read.

I grew up in Lombard, graduated from NIU, and currently live in Glen Ellyn with my husband, my daughter, and our two cats. I am very crafty, love to make cards, and various things-especially for different holidays. Halloween is my favorite, so something is always added to the inside and outside of the house for it! I love traveling, hanging out with my friends and family, and of course reading!
