Assistant Branch Manager
Becky decided to become a librarian after reading the book The Island of Lost Maps, which describes courageous librarians taking down a notorious map thief. Today, you can find Becky Hass at the Reisterstown Road Branch where she works as the Assistant Branch Manager. Becky reads the gambit from graphic novels to microhistories and loves developing a variety of programs for the library. When she's not at the library, you'll probably find her having an adventure around Baltimore as an amateur foodie.
