At the beginning of this week, we missed our amazing Outreach Staff members as they attended the Association of Bookmobile & Outreach Services Conference.

This year was extra special as Haley, our Outreach Associate, was honored with the Rising Star Award. This award highlights the achievements of an individual who displays a passion for the bookmobile and outreach profession, both at work and via volunteer or association activities. Congratulations Haley!

Two of our staff members Lindsay, our Community Engagement Manager, and Holly, our Bookmobile & Outreach Coordinator, also presented at the conference.

Then, Sarah, our Outreach Associate manned our Bookmobile, Van-Gogh, in the ABOS Bookmobile Parade and answered questions from other libraries while the van was on display throughout the week.

Join local author and poet Lesley Gorrell this Saturday, October 17 at 3pm for a time of shared stories, connection, and hope. This will be a non‑traditional book signing that includes an open, human conversation about trauma, survival, and the quiet work of overcoming.

Lesley will share part of her personal journey and pieces from her poetry collection, The Thread: A Journey through Trauma, Healing, and Awakening, as a starting point to help and support others. Whether you want to participate in the discussion or simply sit and listen, you are welcome.
