Well, we made it through another year, and the New Year has some changes. These changes will make our journeys quite different! For all of you who have used our Senior Services bookmobile, you will be sad to know that Pat Doucett has retired. Our loss here at bookmobile will be her husband Walter's gain (although I'm sure he will have many more projects to do at home now!). Pat will be starting a new journey in her retirement as she and her husband travel across the USA visiting relatives starting after Easter. Good luck Pat, and happy motoring! We all miss you and will be thinking of you!
Along with the loss of one of our vital personnel, we have lost some dear patrons. We are sad that we can no longer serve Wall and Wilmerding Boroughs with general bookmobile service due to budget cuts from the State. Our last visit to those locations was in December before we went off the road for our winter break. One addition to the schedule though - we will be serving the high rise in Wilmerding Borough beginning February 18th. It will be the third Thursday of every month from 9:15 - 10:00 am. This stop will serve the older adult population that resides in the high rise. We hope that in the future we will be able to reinstate full weekly service, depending on how the state budget looks in 2011. We'll keep you posted!
