The Eastern Oklahoma Library System is pleased to introduce its new shared branch manager for Rieger Memorial Library and Warner Public Library: Deidre Grzymala.

Deidre hails from Van Buren, Arkansas, and has been a librarian there for eight years. She has a Master of Library and Information Science (MLIS) degree she earned at the University of Oklahoma.

She is married and has a stepson. She and her husband are working through the process to become adoptive parents someday.

Deidre says she has a passion for the public library and helping the community.

“I always say the library is one of the last places you can go for free,” she said. “I’m also all about outreach and making sure we get our services out to the community.
