The following article was published in the Pennington County Courant newspaper.
“We Really Don’t Bite”
by Libbi Sykora
“Don’t make me use my librarian voice!”
Let’s be honest… how many of us were afraid of the cranky
old librarian we were destined to encounter on our ventures to the library as a
child? I’m guessing that the majority is able to relate to this experience. I
am here to empathize and report that you can expect the contrary from our
library.
You never have to be concerned about meeting a quiet, enigmatic
librarian at Wall Community Library. Come on in and chat with us. Librarians
are knowledgeable about multitudes of topics, and we love to be in conversation
with others. Because we are constantly in the presence of books, we often come
into contact with different viewpoints and ideas. Discussing such matters
creates ground for growth and understanding amongst the population.
In a feeble attempt to entice the public into our library
(because sooo many people read the
newspaper anymore), I am doing a series elaborating what you have to look to
forward to when setting foot in your local library. At Wall Community Library,
the employees and library board are working hard to break standards. We are
doing everything we can in order to make your library-going experience as
pleasurable and meaningful as possible. We make available to the public book
groups, reading programs for kids, job resources, and other activities to
include all generations in our library.
Please stay tuned to our column for further information, and/or
contact our library by any of the following means. We are open at 407 Main
Street on Wednesdays from 12-7 PM, Thursdays from 9AM-12:30PM and 1:30PM-5PM,
