2015 Summer Reading Program Highlights!!!

Greetings,

With the Summer Reading Program in full swing, the volunteer services program has experienced notable highlights since the start of the summer season. Here are just a few of the recent standouts so far this season:

SW Express/ Walter Library Grouping  

Summer volunteers Jassmine Gonzalez, Odudu Mbaba, and brother/sister team of Ahmad and Maryam Moeen began their volunteer work immediately following their orientation and  they helped WAL and SWX staff register more than 200 kids on SRP Kick Off Day! 


McGovern Stella Link Library

As one of HPL's busiest locations, Stella Link has received a large influx of volunteers for SRP. To ensure, volunteers are placed in a timely manner, Branch Manager Marcos Martinez, designated a co-supervisor for volunteer services for the summer season. Together, volunteer supervisor, Jesse Farias, and co-supervisor, Mark Hall, completed 2 large volunteer orientation sessions in 1 week. 


McCrane-Kashmere Gardens Library

 Assistant Manager for the Kashmere-Lakewood grouping, Jose Santoyo, wins the award for expediency in volunteer service. A volunteer applicant for the Kashmere Library was sent to staff on a Wednesday evening, and by the next afternoon, the volunteer had been in contact with staff and received an in-person interview, training, and recorded their first hours of volunteer service in less than 24 hours. 



Awesome job team!!!
