Librarian retires for the second time By Cathy SpauldingPhoenix Staff Writer More people have gotten involved in helping the library grow, she said. “We now have a library committee with 10 people. We have $4,000 to $5,000 raised each year — that’s a lot to raise.
Hilbern said she will continue to lead fundraising after retiring from the library. Hilbern said she must retire for health reasons. “I had five surgeries and I have diabetes,” she said. “My doctor says I need more rest and less stress.” Jeanne Myers, a volunteer, will supervise the library until a permanent librarian is found, she said. “God sent her to me,” said Hilbern, who moves around in a motorized chair. “She volunteers here eight hours a day. I’ve gotten to where I couldn’t do shelving. I can’t go low and I can’t go high.”
