The Suburban newsweekly has a nice profile of the Library's new director, Michael Lamb:

"Lamb stressed the importance of partnering with organizations throughout the community in order to provide taxpayers the "biggest bang for their buck." Teaming up with local schools and other organizations in town for programs like summer reading and community reading are just two examples of how the library can do so, he said."
