Changes at the library

This week marks the unofficial end of summer and here at the library we are also marking a huge
change. Jeanne Bracken our wonderful reference librarian has decided to retire after 17 years!
It's hard to imagine the reference room without her! The staff is all going to miss her (as well as
the Lincoln library's patrons!)
At the same time we are saying good bye to Jeanne we are also saying hello to the new reference
Laura Paryl.
Jeanne's last day is tomorrow! Stop bye and say hi and goodbye!
