"Live Oak Public Libraries took a chance on me as an inquisitive, eager, 16-year-old. The library taught me how to remain professional and patient. It gave me the ability to multitask as I balanced work, school, extracurricular activities, and college applications. I met amazing individuals--both employees and patrons of the library.
Through my academic and professional journey, I never hesitate to mention my first job at the library..." ~ ZaDonna, Bull Street Library Customer
