    Thank You, Whatcom County Voters! On Tuesday, August 5, Whatcom County voters approved a levy lid lift for the Whatcom County Library System.

In this special episode we talk with WCLS Trustee Matthew Santos, Executive Director Christine Perkins, Deputy Director Michael Cox, Facilities Manager Ryan Cullup, Collection Services Manager Lisa Gresham, ILS Administrator Carmi Parker and Youth Services Manager Thom Barthelmess — along with a whole lot of grateful staff members — about what this means to the library system and the communities we serve.
