Staff Luncheon
If you’re prone to forgetting to bring your lunch, next
Tuesday would be a great day to do just that.
In honor of Library Workers Day, Staff at both Avoca and Main will be
treated to lunch! The event will start
around noon.
Open Enrollment 2016 Employee Benefits Fair
Wednesday, April 20 10:00 AM- 3:00 PM
From City Hall:
This year, the entire event will be held in the City Council
Chambers. There will be about 17 vendors this year. All
Hybrid employees should stop by and make contact with Erinn Briele, with
ICMA-RC who will be available to discuss and answer questions regarding
voluntary contributions to your retirement plan.
Also, this year, for the first time, employees on the City’s
health insurance may stop by The Local Choice’s Commonhealth Wellness booth and
get a complete health screening at no cost! As part of this package, you
can get blood pressure, cholesterol, - total and HDL, glucose and diabetes risk
assessment, body mass index (BMI) and get instant results!
Attached is a registration sheet if interested, (this is strictly voluntary)
and there will be 3 nurses available to conduct these tests.
Please
contact HR with your preferred time slot BY NO LATER THAN MONDAY APRIL 11. Approximately 1-4
participants every 15 minutes may be seen. These tests can be conducted
in separate and private spaces of the Council Chambers area. You should
present your Local Choice/Anthem insurance card at the time of testing as
evidence of a participant of The Local Choice.
NOTE: LIS staff, you are welcome to attend but please check with Christy first so we can be sure desks are covered. Then if you want to take advantage of the health screening, you can call the HR Department at 276-642-2325 to get an appointment in that time period.
New Spaces!

Our new spaces are almost ready and they look wonderful! Joyce has put in a lot of hours and a lot of sweat putting up
shelving, moving things around, and measuring.
Thank you, Joyce, for all your hard work!
Thanks to the LIS Staff!!
And speaking of hard work, thanks to those who have been
moving the YA books, especially Justin and Don.
They’ve been troopers.
Also thanks to all those who have been straightening and
cleaning the adult books. You make the
library look wonderful! It is noticed and appreciated.
