ABOUT ME

I'm Jaylyn McCoy, the last McCoy in a long series of McCoys. I graduated with my Master's in Library and Information Science from the University of Denver in June 2022. I focused on digitization, preservation, and metadata. When I expressed these interests to my father, he began giving me little pieces of McCoy history. During my digitization class, an assignment asked for a digitization proposal for a collection and I thought of the hundreds of photographs, books, and other items now in my possession. Thus, the Last McCoy Library was born.

​

When I'm not elbows deep in books and metadata in my job at the local library, I enjoy culinary adventures such as baking, cake decorating, and experimental recipes. I'm a vigorous cheese enthusiast who's only ever met one cheese I didn't like (vanilla cheese...). I embroider and craft when I find the time. I've also recently picked up gardening, mostly for veggies, herbs, and a few fruits.
