Sally Bissell, a former real estate broker, joined the Lee County Library System 15 years ago, the happy result of a midlife career change. She earned her MA in Library Science from the University of South Florida while working on the Bookmobile. Currently an Adult Services Reference Librarian, Sally is an avid readers' advisor who takes great pleasure in leading book discussions, maintaining her book blog and now writing reviews for Library Journal. She's not quite sure how she got to be so "techie", but she was instrumental in encouraging LCLS to join the statewide chat service, serves as on-site coordinator, and loves the diversity of library work. Her avocations include enjoyment of movies, theatre, travel and local politics.

Prior to coming to CCLA, Lucy worked as the Reference Librarian at Indian River Community College.
