Q&A
Q: Why are you running for the library board, whether for re-election or election the first time? Is there a particular issue that motivates you, and if so, what is it?
A: I have watched and participated in the library's growth and prosperity over the past 14 years; the library is at the heart of the Libertyville community that my husband and I have loved since we moved to the area. I want to help ensure that the library continues its current trajectory as a house of knowledge, a learning resource, and a place for community engagement. When I describe our library to family and friends in other communities, they are amazed at all that our library district has to offer; I want to be part of the team that maintains -- and continues to add to - this vibrant community resource. It is a way for me to give back to our community through the resource I take full advantage of.
