Libraries aren't just for books. They're often spaces that transform into what you need them to be: a classroom, a cyber café, a place to find answers, a quiet spot to be alone. It's actually kind of magical. This week, we have stories of people who roam the stacks and find unexpected things that just happen to be exactly what they required.
Enjoy, bibliophiles!
Locally, one of our parents just gushed on the Visit Kenosha blog. We can tell people how awesome we are over and over, but when it comes unprompted from a very satisfied regular visitor, it really means a lot! Congratulations and thank you to our dynamic, brilliant Youth and Family Services staff!
Join us July 3rd @6:30pm for a Kingfish outing! You'll get a reserved seat, fireworks, and a Kingfish hat for $5. (food and drink on your own) Bring your family and friends and enjoy the game with your fellow KPLers. The night will be a fundraiser for the Library Foundation.
We're hosting 2 candidates for the Division Head Public Services, one on April 18 and one on April 22. Both candidates will be at NS in the morning. Please introduce yourself if you see them and let me know what you think.
This week's Bright Spot Award goes to Don Brickell, nominated by his peers Emily, Amy, Gina, and Jan. Here's what Emily said:
Hi Barb,
Jan, Gina, Amy and I would like to nominate Southwest ICS staffer Don Brickell for a Bright Spot award! Don went on an Honor Flight this past Saturday to recognize his service in the Vietnam War. Don has been a Page/ICS at SW since September 2007, and his sense of humor and popular staff picks have made him an indispensable part of the team.
Thanks for considering our suggestion!
Thank you, Don, for your service to our country, and for your continued, cheerful service to the KPL community!
