Family, friends and colleagues gathered in Warkworth last week for an afternoon tea to celebrate library manager Lisa Outwin’s 20 years of service to Rodney and Auckland Libraries. Regional library manager Megan Grimshaw-Jones led a number of glowing tributes to Lisa, citing her care for her staff and customers, her many skills and her generosity.
“Nothing is too much trouble, you constantly put others first, you’re self-effacing and handle changes with due care, practicality and good humour,” she said. “We are so lucky to have you.”
Lisa said libraries had changed a lot in the past two decades and she had loved every minute in her role.
“Things have come a long way since I started,” she said. “I think our customer service is pretty amazing now. The best thing is all the awesome people I work with. I couldn’t have chosen a better career.”
