Program description: Working with a Friends group can be one of the most rewarding aspects of a library director's job, or one of the most challenging. Our Director/Friends teams are from Newton (MA) Free Public Library with Kathy Glick-Weill, Director and Friends President Nancy Grissom and from Avon (CT) Free Public Library with Ginny Vocelli, Director and Barbara Leonard, Friends President. They discuss how they work with one another for the benefit of the library and community, and describe their challenges as well as their successes.
