Brueggen and Kling said they will coordinate spring and summer programming and book purchases; the library's annual report is due to Winding Rivers Library System by Feb. 20, 2025, and the next Library Board meeting will be scheduled before that date so the annual report can be accepted and signed.

Brueggen closed her remarks by thanking the board for support and said she will continue to advocate for the library during the transition.
