About me
Verena is managing Punggol Regional LIbrary - NLB's first library that is purpose-built to welcome persons with disabilities. She has been involved in its early development since 2016, and has delved into library planning and operations management. She also formed the Accessibility team which spearheads the various initiatives to make NLB more inclusive for persons with disabilities, most of which has culminated in the offerings at Punggol.
Prior to joining NLB, Verena was formally trained as a social worker. She then joined NLB as a children’s librarian, serving in various public libraries, and developed reading programmes for schools. She also helped to set up the new Tampines Regional Library in 2017 and was manager of Woodlands Regional Library from 2018-2022.
