Great timing for #NationalFriendsofLibrariesWeek! JMRL could not provide the library service that this community expects and deserves without the support of the Friends. Want to be a Friend? Sign up at jmrlfriends.org/join (link in bio). #jmrl #nfolw22 #friendyourlibrary

#JMRL adult services librarian, blogger, and podcaster Abby Davis wrote this guest blog about finding new purpose and energy for JMRL’s “On the Same Page” podcast when co-host EJ Dowling joined the pod. A great read for anyone interested in #podcasting or #librarythings.
