In this encouraging and uplifting presentation, Michelle asks attendees to question, think about, or remember “Why do I work at a library?” She discusses an overview of the library’s purpose in the community and the roles of the different departments to successfully serve that community. Finally, she will share what it means to “Deliver on Yes”, she gives motivation, ideas, and suggestions to help all departments work as one toward "Delivering on Yes.”
