Guild Organizers


The Guild has hired two part-time organizers, Natasha Ang and Ben Fuller-Googins. Natasha and Ben will be making calls, visiting libraries to speak with staff to find out how the Guild and the members can improve communications, and to garner support for the library’s City Charter amendment on the March ballot. 


Please welcome our organizers and offer them the support they need to ensure the charter amendment passes
