About Erin Spivey

Erin Spivey (or “Erin the Librarian”) was born and raised in Huntington Beach and today is raising her own family in the same community that shaped her.

Born and raised in Huntington Beach, I grew up attending local schools spending beach days with friends and learning about the community that makes our beachside city so special. I stepped away to earn my undergraduate degree at the University of California Santa Barbara, completed my teaching credential at Cal State Long Beach, and received my Master’s in Library and Information Science from Drexel University’s graduate program.

While I originally planned to teach high school English, I quickly discovered that librarianship was my true calling. Before the pandemic, I followed that calling and spent nearly a decade as a Library Media Specialist in the Fountain Valley School District. Following the pandemic, I returned to Huntington Beach where I joined the Huntington Beach Public Library, my second home.
