New Feature – Public Libraries Spotlight

Posted by Bobbi Newman on July 5th, 2017 Posted in: Public Libraries Spotlight

To highlight the amazing work of the public libraries in our region related to health reference, outreach, and programming we are a launching a new blog series. Each post will feature someone working in a public library in the GMR area and the health and wellness work they do. I have provided the interviewees with some form questions about themselves and their work that will hopefully inform and inspire our readers!

If you would like to be featured, or know someone who should be featured, please email Bobbi Newman
