Booked 2022
Here are some scenes from 2022 when we were entertained and inspired to give by Honorary Chair, Mayor Lucy Vinis, author Kim Johnson, and our dynamic host, Eugene City Councilor Matt Keating. Will O’Hearn graciously highlighted how Eugene Public Library has met community needs again and again throughout the pandemic, demonstrating how the Library of Things is expanding access to knowledge even more. And we honored Renee Grube who retired as the executive director of Library, Recreation, and Cultural Services.
