For the past four years, I’ve had the privilege of serving the Charlton community as a faithfully elected public servant. The ability to work toward bettering the library that we all love is an honor. I’m proud to have modernized our nondiscrimination policy, established a formal policy governing our social media presence, and declared our library a public accommodation proudly inclusive of all residents who seek to take advantage of the many resources it has to offer—regardless of gender identity.
