My Librarian: Babak

All About Babak

Hi, everyone! I’m Babak (pronounced BAH-BACK, pronouns he/his).

I’m originally from Fredericksburg, spending a lot of time here in the library where, as the Access Services librarian, I now help those with disabilities to use library services.

I loved fantasy and science fiction growing up, and while that love of my “home genres” remains, I now also read a wide range of unique stories, including genre-bending and mash-up books, old stories retold from new angles, Gothics, multicultural, LGBTQ+, newly published authors, and more. I look forward to helping you find your next great read!
