What is your first library memory?
The library where I grew up in Montpelier, VT is a beautiful stone building with entire lower floor for the children’s section. I remember having to weave my way into different nooks and crannies where I would sit for hours reading. There was a central section that had vines climbing up, and I thought they were real, but they probably weren’t. I remember finding an illustrated version of The Wind and the Willows that I took out so many times, that my grandmother ended up buying me my own copy.
What is on your nightstand right now?
What book do you love to suggest to friends? It depends on their reading preference. I love the challenge of finding one to match the reader.
What book would you most like to read again for the first time?
Last book that made you laugh or cry (or both)? Night of Miracles by Elizabeth Berg (read it for the Knit Lit book club at our library)
Why do you love being a library trustee?
I love books, libraries and have enjoyed getting to know our town better through my role as a trustee. It’s given me a platform to learn about, promote and protect one of the best assets of the town.
