Loveland Library changing of the guard
After a very long stint as director of the Loveland Library, Ted Schmidt will be retiring March 2 of next year. Ted has been at the local library for more than three decades. He will be leaving as the library wraps up its major renovation and expansion.
I am a frequent visitor to the library, and think all the new changes are great. Ted has always been very forward-thinking. In addtion to running the libary, Ted Schmidt has done a lot in the community. I first got to know Ted outside the library when I worked for United Way.
I don’t know about anyone else, but my vote goes to Marcia Lewis to be the next director of the Loveland Library. She has been second in command for many years.

Thanks for the kind words about Ted, the library and me becoming director. It will be happening March 3. I look forward to advancing library services in new areas as well as continuing the excellent programs like early literacy storytimes and outreach to the homebound. I know the new library will be beautiful and I hope useful too.
Thanks Marcia You and Ted have both been the foundation of a great library. The new changes are great. Please let bobsheartbeats.com know of any news on staff changes coming up.
