The Dummerston Community Center and Library Board of Trustees would like to formally welcome the library’s new director, Erin Riley. Erin comes to us from Landmark College, where she was a library assistant, and she is currently working on her Certification for Librarianship through the Vermont Department of Libraries. As a personal manager to a published author, she is also highly immersed in the world of literature and publishing. During this time of transition for the Dummerston Community Center and Library, we look forward to the vibrance and new ideas that Erin will contribute to our town’s library.
While Erin has already begun working at the library, we will be hosting a week-long “Meet Your New Library Director!” event, running from Monday, March 30th through Saturday, April 1st. Discuss your interests in books, programming, and hopes for the future of the library! Please stop by to meet Erin, and enjoy some complimentary cookies with a cup of tea or coffee.
