Corfu resident Pamela Ware was honored for her 10 years of service to the Nioga Library System at the 52nd annual dinner held at the Hickory Ridge Country Club in Holley on May 17.
Ware served as chair of the Personnel Committee and as the state and national liaison. She was also trustee-at-large for Genesee County libraries.
She received a Trustee Certification Award for her advocacy efforts on behalf of Nioga and the member libraries of Niagara, Orleans and Genesee Counties. She also received a stone plaque engraved with Thomas Jefferson’s famous quote in 1815 -- “I cannot live without books.”
Ware quipped, “The 1815 refers to how much this weighs!”
The Genesee trustee-at-large position remains open. Anyone interested in this appointment is urged to contact their local library.
