NEW LIBRARIANS

Two new librarians joined our staff in January and are pleased to be working with you. First on board was John Berkeland, who replaced Kim Bell, serving those with last names beginning with the letters M through R plus all of our readers who are 16 years old or younger. John was a children's librarian at Tempe Public Library and then Glendale Public Library and he will offer a reading program for our young readers this summer.

Just two days later Christine Tuttle came on board, and she and Alice shared a job for a few days before Alice retired. Christine serves patrons whose last names begin with the letters A through D plus she is the librarian for schools, nursing homes, hospitals, and other institutions. Christine came to us from Phoenix Public Library and received her library degree this past summer from the University of Arizona. You may call Christine at 602-255-5578 if you would like her to visit your institution.

Please join us in welcoming our new librarians to the Talking Book Library!
