Collective Support: LJ's 2022 Librarians of the Year
In honor of the tremendous job libraries have done during the pandemic, the Library Journal has named ALL LIBRARY STAFF as winners of the Librarian(s) of the Year for 2022! Congratulations, you all deserve a round of applause, this honor is for, "taking care of yourselves, your patrons, and one another through hard times".
Thank you for your gifts to the library and therefore the community.

Fittingly, the idea was inspired by a library staffer and includes volunteers. Read more..
