Director and Administrative Staff

Stephanie Szymanski has a movie poster from To Kill a Mockingbird in her office.  The poster was signed by Mary Badham, who played Scout in the film.  She spoke as part of a program here discussing her experience playing Scout in the film and signed the poster.  The poster was then given to Stephanie as a token for her work in creating the program.

Teamwork

One current system-wide  committee is the Celebrating America Committee. I appreciate that this committee seeks to unify the efforts of the various branches to promote Celebrate America programs and events.  It is helpful to the public to be aware, and also excited about these programs in their area.

There is a Window Decorating Team currently chartered at Westminster Branch.

Human Resources

HR Staff are:
Muffie Smith - HR Director
Terri Simmons - HR Specialist
Kim Smithson - HR Specialist
Jaclyn Wilson - HR Secretary

I liked Muffie Smith's horse puppet the best for the props in the picture because puppets are awesome!


Through ESS, the most helpful area to me will be the Payroll area.  As a sub this area will help me track of the hours I work and the varying paychecks associated with each pay period.

Outreach Department

Library programming is important because it increases the use of library facilities and resources by the public.  It also promotes life-long learning across target groups in the community.  Progarmming also serves to access statistics and information regarding trends in who uses library resources and needed programs.

ILL

It is super easy to schedule a meeting online.
Then if you need to cancel the meeting it is again super easy to email or call the ILL dept to cancel it.

Operations and Facilities

The Facilities Manager is  Tom Sheets.
The IT Manager is Bob Kuntz.
The Technical Services Manager is Elaine Adkins.

One interesting thing about the Operations and Facilities dept. is they are in charge of the physical resources of the library branches and also the virtual resources.

Communications Department

I learned:
that the Communications Department is in charge of posters, flyers, calendar of events, and all communication of information between the library and the public and news outlets.
that this department also produces the Currents informational magazine that the library distributes to the public to highlight programming and informations from the various branches
that the Communications Department issues press releases concerning library issues
that they schedule author visits to library branches
and that they have to approve any flier or other information that is to be presented to the public.
