Lampman Celebration 2023

5/22/2023

It was a pleasure to celebrate the many accomplishments of Rocío Espinoza-Cotero at the Evelyn Sibley Lampman Award Breakfast at OLA in Bend on April 21, 2023. There may even have been a few tears shed as people heard about her impact on children in her community of Hillsboro and the state of Oregon.
I had the pleasure of driving a paper Library on the Loose van from table to table while people at each table read direct quotes from nomination letters such as:

Her calendar is full, she is often doing multiple things at once, and yet I’ve also known her to  drop everything for a quick pop-up storytime in costume!"

She is particularly adept at bringing even the shyest, most reserved teen out of their shell. They may start off hesitant about interacting with the public, but within a few times volunteering with Rocío, she has them enthusiastically engaging with kids and adults spreading the good word about libraries!"
I think she’s single handedly given out a million books to children ."
Rocío is a connector, cares deeply for her community, supports her coworkers, volunteers,  interns, and truly everyone. "

Here is a slideshow that Hillsboro Library created to celebrate Rocío:
