We asked Gloria Lacina a few questions for this “Volunteer Spotlight:”
How long have you been volunteering for the Iowa City Public Library?
Over 15 years.
What do you do at the Library?
Check-in books.
Why did you decide to volunteer at the Library?
I wanted to do a service for the community. I’ve been coming to the Library since I was a little girl. I remember going to the old, old Library. I’ve been through a lot of transitions.
What is your favorite part of the collection?
I read an awful lot of fiction, but I also like biographies and history. I also like classic movies and British period TV series.
What else do you like to do?
I’m a big reader. I also knit, crotchet and bake. I try and walk three miles a day when weather permits.
Thank you, Gloria, for all of your time and hard work!

About the Author
Brian works as the Senior Adult Services Librarian at the Iowa City Public Library.
Have you ever wanted to see Bob Odenkirk beat the living daylights out of someone? How about see Christopher Lloyd with a sawed-off shotgun? Then do I have a movie for you! I was completely surprised by this fun and violent movie. Warning: if you're squeamish, like me, then there will be a lot of cringing and covering your face. -Brian
