Town Talk: A conversation with Michal Ashby and Erin Rooney – Samuels Public Library
In this town talk, our publisher Mike McCool speaks with Michal Ashby and Erin Rooney from Samuels Public Library. Michal is the Youth Services Supervisor, and Erin is the Adult Reference Supervisor at the Samuels Public Library.
How often can you stand to hear, “I’m bored.” For parents, summer vacation can be a constant battle between keeping the kids entertained and managing the budget. The good news is there are so many fun and accessible ways for kids to stay busy during the summer at Samuels Public Library.
Michal and Erin update us on what’s happening in August and September at the library in this Town Talk. Click here to see all the upcoming events.

Topics will be varied but hopefully interesting. Let us know if you have an idea or issue or want to hear from someone in our community. Send your request to news@RoyalExaminer.com
