Meet Natasha Rosa, Branch Outreach Specialist 👋 Hello, everyone! I’m Natasha, and I’ve been part of the OCLS team for over five years. In March 2023, I started an exciting new journey as an Outreach Specialist, serving the wonderful residents of North Orange. In this role, I’ve had the chance to dive into what our community needs and loves. This has led me to organize fun bilingual events for kids and host events to boost literacy and academic support for all ages. I’ve created bilingual content to help young native Spanish speakers learn English vocabulary and teamed up with local hospitals to provide essential resources for families and children in a warm and welcoming environment. The best part of my job? Meeting you and hearing your stories. Your experiences and the positive impact of our programs inspire me every day. See you soon!

Meet Arthur Ugalde, Branch Outreach Specialist 👋 Greetings! My name is Arthur, and I am a proud member of the Community Engagement Department here at OCLS. As your friendly neighborhood outreach specialist, I wanted you to know more about me. I’m a huge science nerd with a love of horror movies and video games. I have been teaching science and providing outreach throughout our community for a decade and currently work out of South Trail Branch to bring services all over the county. Some of my proudest outreach moments include the creation of “Library Take Over Day” at Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children, where every three months library staff provide activities, storytimes and educational fun to all patients and their families for an entire day! As an outreach specialist, I get to bring everything OCLS has to offer and more to help make our community the best it can be. I wear my library swag with pride! Contact your nearest library to find out how to access your nearest outreach specialist! It might even be me
