From our Maine State Librarian, Linda Lord:

Christine B. Powers, director of the Naples Public Library, has been elected to the 126th session of the Maine State Legislature. Regardless of political party or any other considerations it is a joy to announce that a librarian is serving in the House. Congratulations on your success, Christine!

(Yes, the more librarians in the state legislature, the better for our state’s public libraries, including Long Island Community Library!)
