Wakulla County Administration Department recently recognized Senior Library Assistant Linda Oaks as its first Employee of the Quarter. Linda has worked at the Wakulla County Public Library (Library) for eight years.

Linda manages the Library’s collection and circulation of literature. She is also the main contact and organizer of the annual StoryWalk and Trick-or-Treat Trail in Azalea Park, one of Wakulla’s most attended annual festivals. “Linda’s devotion to Wakulla and its citizens shines through in every interaction, whether face-to-face or behind the scenes,” said Library Services Director Robyn Drummond, “the library is consistently complimented on the quality of our collection, which reflects on her connection to our patrons.”

Linda has furthered her education by taking advantage of the County’s Tuition Assistance Program. She completed her Associate of Arts in 2019 and her Bachelor of Science in Interdisciplinary Social Sciences this July using the Program. She is now enrolled at Florida State, pursuing a Master of Science in Information in the General Librarianship Program.

“Linda is an exceptional employee dedicated to serving the citizens of Wakulla County,” said County Administrator David Edwards.
