This is episode two of our two-part series featuring long-tenured NPL staff. Episode one can be found here, but it’s not required listening for this episode—though we think you’ll enjoy hearing everyone’s story! In this episode, Sarah sat down with two more members of the NPL family who have dedicated 25 years or more to serving our library community.

In this episode, you'll hear from:

• Andrew Thompson has served as a Children’s Associate at the Inglewood Library for the past 17 years. He began his career with NPL in 2001 as part of the LSDHH Department at Main Library.
• Susan Poulter is a Cataloging Librarian with NPL and has been with the library for 26 years.

What you'll hear in this episode...

Even more stories from experienced NPL staff members as they share unique memories from their years at the library! In this episode, they talk about the experiences that brought them to NPL, the moments that shaped their careers, the legacy of Tom Tichenor and the library’s beloved Wishing Chair Productions (a.k.a. puppet shows), and many more cherished memories from their time with NPL.

I also mention footage that the AVHC digitized of one of Tom Tichenor’s puppet shows. You can find a link to this footage here.
