As the Library returns to full operating hours, we’ve brought on some new team members! Meet Ursula! She works part-time in Housekeeping and is very excited to join the Homewood Library team. We thought a fun way to introduce Ursula to Homewood would be with a lighthearted interview. Learn more about Ursula and be sure to say “hello” when you see her in the Library.
