I have served over 500 hours as an AmeriCorps reading tutor at Lincoln Elementary and have gained new insights on literacy and lifelong reading. In this role, I was able to partner with Carnegie-Stout Library to execute a celebration of Dr. Seuss' 111th birthday, and I look forward to future opportunities to work with the library. I hold a bachelor's degree in Anthropology from the University of Utah. This education has enhanced my observational and analytical capacities in the matter of socio-cultural processes, and, along with my coursework in group process and facilitation, it uniquely qualifies me to advocate for library services ? and policies on behalf of the diverse members of our community. In my lifetime, I have been an active patron of ten city and county libraries and three university libraries. While attending the University of Utah, I worked in the Special Collections department at the Marriott Library and was involved in relocating the Western Americana collection during the renovation of that library in 2006. During my time residing in Salt Lake City, UT and subsequently in Madison, WI, I witnessed the complex processes related to improving downtown library facilities and services in both of these cities. I have also remained connected to my smaller hometown of Springville,UT (population now 32,000), where I served on the youth city council in 1999 and continue to follow improvements to the library services and facilities there. My education and experience are uniquely relevant to the essence of a public library's purpose. I will be a strong library advocate and will make meaningful contributions in the planning and evaluation of library services with an eye toward the future needs of our culturally diverse community. i1 i� What contributions can you make or state reason for applying?: I have a long-standing love of library spaces, both as personal sanctuary (my husband proposed to me in the Library of Congress!) and as a means to facilitate connections between community members and resources. I also have a practical understanding as a reading tutor of how free access to books, technology, and other materials is essential to developing and sustaining a skilled and literate community. Public library facilities and services provide an essential vehicle to carry society into a more vibrant and informed future. n I am a new resident of Dubuque and eager to integrate my family into this promising community. Carnegie-Stout Library's innovative programing (including Art@ your library, game nights, and music events), top-notch renovation, and efforts to extend accessibility via off-site book drops and vending are all strengths that weighed heavily in affirming my decision to raise my daughter in Dubuque. I look forward to contributing my time and perspectives as young a mother, as well as my educational background and knowledge of school district curriculum to ensure our library has the greatest possible reach to all members of our community.

The Carniege-Stout PL is one of the most active and well used public institutions that I've encountered. I think Susan Hendrix is an amazing administator and it would be my pleasure to be part of future of what's in-store for Dubuque. I simply would just like to involved in my community and I feel joining the library board would be a superb way to be involved.

All appointive boards, commissions, committees, and councils of the state established by the Code, if not otherwise provided by law, shall be gender balanced. No person shall be appointed or reappointed to any board, commission, committee, or council established by the Code if that appointment or reappointment would cause the number of members of the board, commission, committee, or council of one gender to be greater than one—half the membership of the board, commission, committee, or council plus one if the board, commission, committee, or council is composed of an odd number of members. If the board, commission, committee, or council is composed of an even number of members, not more than one—half of the membership shall be of one gender. If there are multiple appointing authorities for a board, commission, committee, or council, they shall consult each other to avoid a violation of this section. 2. All appointive boards, commissions, committees, and councils of a political subdivision of the state that are established by the Code, if not otherwise provided by law, shall be gender balanced as provided by subsection 1 unless the political subdivision has made a good faith effort to appoint a qualified person to fill a vacancy on a board, commission, committee, or council in compliance with subsection 1 for a period of three months but has been unable to make a compliant appointment. In complying with the requirements of this subsection, political subdivisions shall utilize a fair and unbiased method of selecting the best qualified applicants. This subsection shall not prohibit an individual whose term expires prior to January 1, 2012, from being reappointed even though the reappointment continues an inequity in gender balance. 86 Acts, ch 1245, §2041; 87 Acts, ch 218, §8; 88 Acts, ch 1150, §1; 2009 Acts, ch 162, §1, 2 i requirements 1 Iowa has required gender •. boards and commissions forunder 1� tovva Code section 69.16A.Last session,the General Assembly passed legislation that applies s, this requirementto the localQ&A explainsbackground • legislation,the new requirements , the legislation • • Q:What are the new requirements for gender balance on city Q:Is there any option if my city simply cannot find a person to boards and commissions? serve on the board or commission of the needed gender?
