Meet our staff who are here to help connect you with materials.

	Anita, Manager She has been in the retail book business forever and uses that experience to drum up great deals and keep our inventory in order.  Open to thinking outside the box, she was the first to ask, “Wouldn’t perogies go well with books?”
	AnaSara, Admin Assistant She is scrupulous with details and kind with customers - a perfect combination in a busy setting where she is both retailer and librarian, often simultaneously.  Call or email us - and hope you get AnaSara.
	Josh, Communications/Marketing Coordinator The latest to join our team, Josh has upped our game in-store and on social media.  Gone are the handwritten signs and fuzzy graphics.  Check out his photography on our Instagram page - but beware, he might be promoting something.
	Arlyn, Director This job brings together a lot of his loves:  books and resources, retail and loan, church and university, fine details and finer customers, and quick access to folio cafe.  Come by and say “hi” and tell him not to take his job too seriously.
