I have been employed in local and state <br />government (human services) for 25 years. I have been a volunteer on a county board for the <br />past 6 years. I believe my experience in participating in a board management environment, <br />collaborating with diverse stakeholders, and a 25 + year history observing Orange County s <br />growth. <br />Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: <br />I have been a faithful patron since 1995. I also regularly donate books for the library s <br />discretionary use. The Chapel Hill library is an invaluable asset that contributes to my personal <br />ongoing reading pleasure, in addition to numerous other county patrons. I want to pay it forward <br />to future library patrons so they can benefit from the same resources I have enjoyed. <br />Conflict of Interest: <br />Contribution to the diversity of viewpoints on this board: <br />As an individual residing in an unincorporated part of the county and a longtime patron of the <br />Chapel Hill Public Library, I can bring this unique perspective about how this library is a resource <br />for the entire southern part of the county. <br />13
