Finally Home!

After 16 years away from Marshall Public Library, Becca Hyde has accepted the position of Early Childhood Librarian--and she couldn’t be happier! In the 80s and 90s, she worked in both Circulation and Children’s Services presenting storytimes, giving library tours, and many other librarian duties.

The years of her absence were quite full with raising her darling (most of the time) children, volunteering in schools, managing the Portneuf Valley Farmers Market with her husband, Joe, and recently being the choir accompanist for three choirs at Pocatello High School. However, there was always a dream and a hope of coming back to work at Marshall Public Library with the best team of devoted workers anywhere.

And so she is thrilled to be back and once again reading stories. The new Family Storytime, which is held every Tuesday evening at 6pm, is something Becca is excited to add to her storytime duties. She hopes that many families who cannot attend in the day will want to try it out, especially as it is for families with children of all ages. Becca is not alone in knowing that regardless of how crazy and sometimes disheartening life can be, if you have a good book to read then it’s a great day!
