Thank you to the many professionals at Lincoln Trail Libraries System! They are all of the libraries' backbone for support, resources, training, and legislative updates!

I work at the Tuscola and Arcola Public Libraries. The people I work with at both places are wonderful! They care about each person that enters their library and try to provide not only library services, but a welcoming, generous and kind attitude. There is a joy and willingness to do what needs to be done to provide what our patron is needing and wanting. And there is a patience in listening to those who just need to be heard. We also have fantastic board members who support us in every way and work hard to keep our libraries growing and vital. Thank you for all you do and are!!

I'd like to recognize the entire Champaign Public Library staff. They do a tremendous job everyday! Just within the three years that I have been in Champaign, I have have seen CPL circulation grow by 27 percent and with no real increase in number of staff. CPL staff continues to somehow keep up with all the increases even with more and more asked of them. They also continue to receive "gushing" praise from the public for their helpful and courteous services. I'm proud to be part of a wonderful staff. I must also mention that as a customer I receive great service. As an example, the books that Children's Services selected for me this week earned me a hug from one of the second graders at the school where I volunteer.
