ENDORSEMENT: Vote for Lippert

As the election for the Community Library Network Board of Trustees approaches, I would like to express my strong support for Michelle Lippert. Our community deserves board members who genuinely listen to their constituents and advocate for a diverse library experience.

Michelle exemplifies commitment to understanding the needs of all library users. Unlike those who dismiss community concerns by stating “suck it up,” she values a library that reflects diverse voices and experiences. Advocating for parental rights, unlike some trustees who do not trust parents, she believes parents should have the freedom to choose books that align with their family’s unique values and needs.

Michelle strongly advocates for expanding services and increasing operating hours to better serve our rapidly growing community. Instead of scaling back on these essential offerings, she believes we should enhance them to meet the diverse needs of the residents and ensure that everyone has access to the support and resources they require.

Michelle Lippert supports intellectual freedom, believing everyone should have access to various ideas and viewpoints. This access is essential for a healthy community. She promotes diverse literature in the library, allowing visitors to think for themselves and engage in discussions. By ensuring that all voices are heard, she creates an environment where knowledge can grow and everyone feels free to explore the world.

Electing Michelle Lippert to the Library Board of Trustees means choosing a representative who will prioritize our values and promote an engaging, trustworthy library environment.

Vote for Michelle Lippert!
