On March 2, 2021, the Roger Clark Memorial Library board of trustees welcomed new librarian Ariel Pascoe.
Pascoe’s career began as a children’s librarian. “I am excited to be able to continue and expand this work at RCML by offering events and resources for all ages,” she said. “I hope that longtime patrons will continue to find everything they love here and that residents who may not have ever stopped in will find new reasons to join us.”
Pascoe loves to read philosophy, fairy tales, poetry, and anything written or recommended by library patrons. “Patrons are encouraged to read and explore freely and wildly at our library and I do my best to emulate this joy,” she said.
In addition to offering more adult programs, Pascoe said her goal is to expand the collection of non-traditional items RCML offers. This could include anything from tools to decks of playing cards. “Currently, we offer snowshoes and park passes,” she said.
Stop by to meet Ariel during RCML’s new hours: Tuesday, 10 a.m. – 6 p.m., Thursday, 2 p.m. – 7:30 p.m. and Saturday, 9 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. The library is located at 40 Village Green in Pittsfield.
RCML is also offering curbside service by calling 802-746-4067 or emailing pittsfieldvtlibrary@gmail.com.
