The Board of Trustees and the staff of the Bailey Public Library would like to extend our congratulations to director Richard Fortin, who was recently chosen as one of Maine’s Forty Under 40, an award that recognizes emerging leaders from throughout the state. Richard came on board as Bailey’s director in April of 2010 and has led the library through a very successful two years. Among numerous achievements, he has expanded Bailey’s technology base, scheduled dozens of successful author events, and helped increase awareness of the library as an important resource center for the community. Congratulations, Richard, on this impressive achievement!
