Library Assistant Penny Garrett Joins LRCC Staff

Garrett comes to the College from the Tuftonboro Library and has six years of library experience.  She earned the Bachelor’s Degree in Human Services from Granite State College and has completed the Library Science Certificate Program through the University of Maine at Augusta.   

“I love the job at Laconia,” says Garrett.  “Working with the adult population is something I enjoy immensely having been a non-traditional student myself. “   

“Penny’s background and experience in libraries will greatly benefit our students as well as the whole college community,” says LRCC Librarian, Cyndy Davis (Gilford- not pictured).  “It is a pleasure having Penny join the Library staff.”
