Welcome, Tonia!
Our new executive director has been on the job for less than a week but she is already showing her interest and enthusiasm for the library and its staff. She is in the process of meeting everyone-- if she has not met with you yet, she will
There will be a reception for Tonia on January 23 from 3 pm- 5 pm. The monthly Board of Trustees meeting will follow. Staff members are welcome to drop in.
Tax Forms
We finally had an email from the IRS saying that the tax forms will start shipping on January 21. They estimate three weeks before all will be sent, and we do not have an exact arrival date. The Tax Prep program will start on Saturday, February 1, in the JCC. Exact times will be announced later, but it will be on the usual Tuesdays and Saturdays.
BPL Programs
From Kayla:
If
anyone is interested in the Family Nutrition Program, but cannot attend
the sign-up dates, the contact for that is an employee with the
extension office named Siera and she can be reached at 276-676-6309 or
speers@vt.edu. That information is on the flyer on our downstairs bulletin board, but she did not include it in the Facebook event.
The
only event that is not on our Facebook page yet is the reception for
Tonia, which is happening in the upstairs meeting room from 3:00 pm -
5:00pm on January 23rd. The FOL is providing refreshments, and the public is invited to attend."
Events for Children's and YA departments should be listed on their respective pages.
Old BPL
We have been searching for photos of the previous version of the library, specifically the outside. If anyone has some, we'd love to borrow to scan! Meanwhile, Joyce shared a shot of the old interior along with some familiar faces. Who remembers when the library looked like this?
