The Hopkinsville-Christian County Public Library is proud to announce that Operations Director Tiffany Luna has been awarded the 2022 Fresh Faces Award.
According to a news release, the award highlights the contributions of public library staff throughout Kentucky and encourages idea sharing among regions, specialties, and library sizes. Luna’s nomination bio shared that while she was the Youth Services Librarian, she reimagined the weekly EPIC Hour for youth and incorporated STEAM activities and fun into programs. She created a coding course, healthy eating course, adulting 101 and 3D printing.
During this time youth programming participation increased by 27 percent and youth outreach programming increased by 49 percent. Luna was promoted to Operations Director in 2019 where she manages the daily operations of the library including training and management of staff to building and purchasing processes.
Executive Director DeeAnna Sova says, “Tiffany continues to be an asset to the library team. She understands the processes and structure of public libraries and is always willing to do whatever it takes to ensure that patrons have the best possible experience.”
