Volunteer Spotlight September 2023

Every month, the Citrus County Library System features a volunteer in their “Outside the Stacks” blog on their website. This month, the Central Ridge Library would like to shine the spotlight on Reva. We asked Reva several questions and we wanted to share her responses!

Reva

1.Why did you start volunteering?
It is important to serve your community. It is also important to connect with other individuals and become familiar with your community.

2. How long have you been volunteering with the library?
I have been volunteering at the library for twenty-one years.

3. Why is it important to you to volunteer at the library?
I find it important to volunteer at the library to help customers find books. By shelving books, it enables the library staff to do other tasks that may require more of their attention.

4. Who is your favorite author?
Danielle Steel is my favorite author. She has a lot of fiction and romance books.

5. What book do you recommend to all of your friends to read and why?
“The Rest of Her Life” by Laura Moriarty is my book recommendation, because it is true to life incidents. It is a moral dilemma and talks about a mother and daughter relationship.

6. Do you volunteer anywhere else in the community?
I volunteer at the food pantry and Forest Ridge Elementary School library. It helps me connect with my community more effectively and meet new people.

Thank you, Reva, for dedicating your time to the Central Ridge Library! We truly appreciate all of our volunteers and are glad to spotlight one of the many special people that help to keep our branch running smoothly.
