Missouri State Librarian Robin Westphal made a visit to our new Steadley Family Legacy Center. Her tour included spending time with the Administrator Ben Young as he showed her all of the tools and manipulatives our patrons can take advantage of with their library card. She was very impressed and excited for our community.
