MIDDLEPORT — An open house will be held from 1 - 3 p.m. May 16 at the Royalton-Hartland Community Library to welcome Sonora Miller, the library’s new director. Residents are invited to come and meet Ms. Miller, enjoy some light refreshments, and to learn more about her and what is planned for the library.
Sonora, who spent most of her childhood in Medina, earned her Master’s Degree in Library Information Science from Drexel University. She was the Director of Children’s and Young Adult Services at the Pennsauken, New Jersey Library before returning to Western New York to begin her position as Library Director the week of April 20.
After the first couple of weeks on the job, Sonora says she has been warmly welcomed by patrons, staff, Board members, Friends of the Library and even by other area libraries. “I am thankful to be here, and I hope that my passion for libraries can continue the long tradition of service and excellence that has been set by previous directors,” says Miller.
“Starting this spring, there will be a slate of new programs for children and teens, and a genealogy workshop for adults. Beyond that, I’m looking to expand our programs and services, connect with the local schools and local organizations and reach out to the whole community to find out what they’d like to see from their local library.
The library provides everyone, regardless of who you are or how much you make, with a safe space to get help, to learn, to relax and to connect with your community. I want to make sure that everyone in the towns of Royalton and Hartland knows that our library is here to support their needs,” she says.
