Elizabeth Murphy

Elizabeth Murphy is an award-winning researcher and non-fiction writer from Newfoundland. She has fond memories of earlier years before she became a professor at Memorial University when she was working in a public library shelving books and taking her breaks in a basement filled with shelf after shelf of old, discarded books full of secrets and stories. She lives in St. John’s with her small library, grown son and illiterate but nonetheless communicative pooch. An Imperfect Librarian is her first novel.
