Alvina - SCRL Altona Library Clerk

Alvina has been with SCRL for 5 years.

She joined our team right before our big move to the Altona Mall - and we were so happy that the experience of it all didn't scare her away!

Alvina is a calm presence in the library.

She is an ace at processing and preparing our items for circulation.

Alvina LOVES being busy, often asking for long lists of tasks and projects that can keep her day moving in a forward direction. She is frequently happy to do a lot of the behind-the-scenes stuff, which is necessary and often a thankless job. However, we are always thankful for her and the hard work she puts in to keep everything running smoothly.

From promoting programs and events to celebrating our staff and showcasing our services, Michelle makes sure all the wonderful things happening at our library get the spotlight they deserve and reminds us that the library is so much more than just books, it's a place to connect, learn, laugh and be part of a community.

Wendi - SCRL Altona Library Clerk

Wendi has been with SCRL for 20 years!
Our ever-amazing senior staff.

Wendi brings her years of dedicated service to our branch daily, and leads by example.

She is a master at putting people at ease when they are in our branch, making people feel welcome and at home.

Wendi is our expert organizer who keeps us all straight. There is simply nothing better than going home at the end of your shift, and coming back the next day, when she has cleaned and organized and straightened up! She is also amazing at doing tours and information sessions, especially for our newcomers.

Rachael - SCRL Altona Branch Administrator

Rachael has been with SCRL for 12 years.

As our Branch Admin, she is often in the back, located in her office, doing all the boss-y things that bosses do.

She keeps us scheduled, makes sure we get paid, is in charge of our branch's collection development, runs SCRL's website, and does what nobody else wants to do - I.T.! (A skill none of us have, and we are grateful she does!)

Rachael is also an EXCEL wizard, in her own right. Pass the wizards hat, but put a spreadsheet on it!

If ever you don't know how to do something, or simply do not want to do it, just ask Rachael for help. She will willingly take over the task and complete it - while you can sit back and giggle because she did it for you. (A story, from a friend - not our story, no, of course not!)

A library branch simply would not be, without the Branch Admin!

Gail - Director Of Library Services

Gail has been with SCRL for 6 years.

While her home-base is in her office that is located at the back of SCRL Winkler, she travels from time-to-time to visit the branches.

As the top boss of our team, she keeps us in line (or, at least she tries to🤣) checks on our library and our staff, keeps budgets and board meetings going, and is the first person to make us laugh when she is here.

An avid reader, lover of libraries, and fellow-jokester, she fits in with our team of nuts, pretty darn well.

📚 Today is Canadian Library Workers' Day - a day for Canadians to recognize the valuable contributions made by all those who work in and for the public libraries that are integral to our communities. 📚

Libraries are more than just a place to find books, libraries promote cultural awareness, engage in the community, provide educational programs, support freedom of expression and so much more!

It feels like it is just the perfect day to showcase our staff, and highlight the individual ways that we all contribute to make our great library run.

While neither our Director or our Library Pages may not be featured in the group photo, they are part of our team, and very important ones. You will see them featured in the individual parts of the series.

Here at SCRL Altona, we are a tight-knit crew of ladies. We often admit openly, that where one lacks, the other picks up. And, individually, we all have a few tasks that one person loves to do, that the others loathe. We are joined by a love of stories, people, and the desire to serve.

We have worked together, cried together, joked together, and we are constantly laughing together.

** Different strengths, different stories, different book shelves, and one INCREDIBLE team! **

Here at SCRL Altona, our personalities shine through as we do the one thing that we all collectively enjoy the most - serving the public.

And our crew is the first to say that here in our library, people come first - and books come second. ❤
