Meet the Librarians

Shara Berghuis

I am privileged to hold the position of Library Director at the Wray Public Library and recently celebrIMG_8614ated my 26th Anniversary as a Library Lady.

I became a Library Lady because I love a box of new books!  I love being part of the Wray Community and coming to a place I enjoy working at every day and serving the patrons.  

If I could, I would work on genealogy all the time and learn the stories of my patrons and of the past.  
Personally I enjoy reading, spending time with my family, movies and pizza.
You can always reach me by email.

Rachel Southards

I am the Assistant/ Children’s Librarian and the “go to" lady for the school teachers providing in- class materials available froIMG_8610m the library.  

I create the Storytime program using story books, crafts and fun, and am rewarded with weekly giggles from 3 to 5 year olds.  

I love coffee, crafts, cooking, reading, hunting, animals and my family.

As far as reading, give me a good mystery, children’s books, or historical fiction.

Please feel free to email me for a reading recommendation.

Hello! I am Augustus Gdanitz. I am currently a teen librarian and started in November of 2023. 

I’m always down to read a good book, but also enjoy participating in school clubs, playing instruments, being outdoors, and learning new random facts. I enjoy hearing and telling a good joke, but much like a popped balloon, they often fall flat. I have enjoyed my time here so far and hope to continue being able to serve the library and its patrons.
