ELKTON â Teenage years are typically spent having fun with friends, driving parents crazy and, for most, experiencing a first job. For lifelong Cecil County resident Linda Peterson-Singleton, that first job was working for the Elkton branch of the Cecil County Public Library and eventually being assigned to work on the Bookmobile.
It was the summer of 1963, and Peterson-Singleton was 15 years old. She had made it through freshman year at Elkton Senior High School and was ready to return to her 50-cents-per-hour job at the library that she had loved so much from the summer before (Minimum wage at the time was $1.15).
