We feel like every day is special at the Summers County Public
Library but Saturday, August 27 was an especially special day as
approximately 75 people came to celebrate the Library's 39th birthday
and Myra Ziegler's retirement. We had a great time and it was very
encouraging to see so many library lovers, friends, and supporters
gathered together.
Growing up in Summers County I always knew Myra simply as the
"Library Lady", the person who embodied the Library, one of my
favorite places in the world.
Adults that happily help children, whether they are teachers,
coaches, parents, or even librarians seem larger than life. They make
you feel special when they stop doing whatever it is that adults do
and take time out for you.
Myra was always so cheerful and happy to help that she fostered a
love of reading in learning in literally thousands of children in
Summers County. That is a truly remarkable accomplishment.
As I got older I found that she still treated me with warmth and
respect. She was patient and understanding even when I was an
obnoxious teenager. I was never made to feel unwelcome; I don't even

--As I beca~-an-~aI$,:M~ remained Very helpful and willing to
track down books for me, even going to the great expense of ordering
them from other libraries, or purchasing them for the library's
collection. She was always willing to find any book or information
that I needed.
The great thing is that she wasn't actually treating me special; she
just treats everyone the same way, making everyone feel welcome.
Although she came to personify the library, she never treated it as her
library; because she understands that public libraries belong to the
public.
The most important thing I learned working with Myra, is that
public libraries are one of the greatest institutions of democratic society
because everyone is welcome and everyone has equal access to
information, entertainment, and services.
As a long-time patron, former employee, and current Director of
the Summers County Public Library I just want to thank Myra for
her 34 years of passionate service that has made this community a
much better place.
We've got a ton of great activities coming up so be sure check us out
in the Hinton News or on Facebook to stay in the loop.
