Meet The President
Marcia McLaughlin was a member of the board of trustees of the Weeks Public Library in Greenland and was instrumental in the six-year effort to build an addition to the 123-year-old library. The new addition opened in August 2021.
Her earliest memory of a library is being walked to the local library with her kindergarten class and being issued a library card. She has stated numerous times that “the library is one of my favorite places in the world.”
Marcia has been a full-time volunteer for over 45 years, serving on many organizations, including her local garden club. She is living proof of the truism: “If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need.”
