"Each day brings a new adventure in the Children's Department. Whether it's a school visit, a storytime, or a program for children and families, there's always something to make every day a little different and keep my job exciting."

"The people I serve make coming to work each day worthwhile. WCPL and its employees have a strong bond with our patrons, and staff work hard to protect that relationship. This community celebrates the Library, which inspires us to continuously evolve as their interests change and technology advances."

"One of the biggest things that makes WCPL great, in my opinion, is how accepting and supportive the organization is of my National Guard career and the duties that come along with that. It is truly not something that is easy to find in an employer."
