Library Inspiration

"Since January, I have been a member of the five-person Board of Trustees of the Monroe County Public Library System, MI. For the past 20 years, I have also worked as a correctional officer in a medium-sized Michigan county jail. I have often been asked how my experience in my career in corrections translated into my role as a library board trustee." #communityservice

Great library quote from Jacqueline Woodson! Thanks for this great quote! "I think it's hard to walk into a library and not have a sense of deep respect for all that they hold and stand for. And the fact that the books are yours for a while - for free! - what's not to love?"
