Library Volunteer Spotlight

"What I love about libraries today is that they are a place where anyone and everyone can gather. No one is excluded. The library is a safe place to find books, but also to find shelter and relief from the outside world. Librarians are the unsung heroes of our communities. Our public libraries make our society better in general."

~ Brienne Walsh, Chair of Chatham County Library Board
