Dear Patrons of the Round Lake Library,

My name is Briana and I have worked here for nearly nine years, having dedicated most years of my service to the Children’s department.  I regret to inform you that I am now leaving this library in order to continue my education in archaeology.  It has been a pleasure working here, striving to bring exciting programs to the children of this community.  Having grown up in Round Lake myself, it is a wrench to leave this town.  We have some smashing people here and I am glad to have met many of you.

I am especially pleased that I was able to teach some archaeology and ancient history to some of the Tweens of this and surrounding communities.  That was by far my favorite part of my job in the Youth department!

Thanks for an excellent nine years!

~Briana
