Welcome to the Oneonta Middle School Library website. My name is Kathleen Sosebee and I am the middle school librarian. After graduating from Auburn University, I began my teaching career in 1998 at Oliver Elementary School teaching fourth grade. I have also taught third and fourth grade at White Plains Elementary School, third grade at Erwin Elementary School, and fourth grade at Blountsville Elementary School. In 2010 I became the Blountsville Elementary School librarian and then came to Oneonta Middle School as the librarian in 2017. I have enjoyed working with the faculty and staff at Oneonta and I truly believe we have a great staff, student body, and community. It is a privilege and joy coming to work each day and serving as librarian. GO REDSKINS!
