MTP Library Central

This year the outstanding Library Staff award was given to Janet Bailey, employee at the Manheim Township Public Library.  Bailey has been affiliated with the Manheim Township Library for over 12 years.  From 1998 – 2005 she served as one of the library’s volunteers.   Then in 2005 she was hired as the Branch coordinator, a capacity in which she served through 2007.   She currently holds the title of Operations Manager of the Manheim Township Public Library.

According to Katrina Anderson, MTPL Director, “Janet Bailey is the heart of the library!  Her presence at the front desk, as well as behind the scenes, makes a difference to both patrons who are recipients of her excellent service, as well as staff and volunteers who echo my respect and admiration for her.   She is the glue that binds us and the attraction that motivates many volunteers to continue service.” 

Initiated in 2008, this award is presented to a library staff member who has provided excellence in public library services in Lancaster County.
