Focus On...

...Janet McIntyre, Glenview Public Library's Outreach Librarian. Janet has been a librarian for 23 years, and is well-liked and respected by her co-workers and library patrons. She has a great sense of humor, a good heart and takes her responsibilities seriously.

As the Outreach Librarian, Janet  orders large print materials, coordinates service for homebound patrons, sets up programs for seniors (the GlenEnergy series), and works with Oakton Community College to provide adult literacy classes in the library. She works with various volunteers who pick up and deliver library materials to homebound patrons - materials that she and other staff members have selected. She also works with other libraries to provide programs such as the Low Vision Fair.

On top of all that she does as the Outreach Librarian, Janet still manages to find time to work the public service desk helping patrons who either call or come into the library for assistance.

Say hello to Janet next time you’re at the Library.
