Katie Dover-Taylor is a newfangled librarian. She currently resides in her childhood home. Katie has previously made her home in such exotic locales as Ann Arbor, Michigan, Evanston, Illinois, and Oberlin, Ohio.

Katie is originally from Detroit, Michigan — the city itself; 6 mile and Evergreen. She grew up swordfighting with sticks; climbing trees; building towers, forts, and castles; reading; running after the ice cream truck; and getting dirty, guilt-free. She is still not afraid to get dirty. She has a dying-city sensibility, a tendency towards jury-rigging, and an eye for design. She loves the local farmer’s market and the idea that Detroit is being recliamed by nature.

Katie believes in painting fences, Tom Sawyer style. She seeks to complicate your understanding of librarians, Detroiters, and the freckled.
