Famous author Neil Gaiman once said, “Google can bring you back 100,000 answers, a librarian can bring you back the right one.\u201d\u00a0The skilled librarians at Mandarin and South Mandarin branch libraries help customers find the right answers and just as important, they do it with caring and compassion. <\/span><\/p>\n

A thankful customer conducting a job search recently complimented librarians Mark Hohnadel and Stacey Van Hoy at Mandarin library. Hohnadel spent one-on-one time with the customer, helping her update her resume, locating pertinent library resources and forwarding her resume to a friend who was hiring. The customer said she was in \u201cawe of the helpful service and the sincerity exhibited by\u00a0Mark, Stacey and the entire staff\u201d in solving her concerns. Her quote sums up the dedication of all staff at the Jacksonville Public Library. According to Hohnadel, he was just doing his job. <\/span><\/p>\n
