Endorsements for the STL Candidates are Pouring In!

The Support the Library Carol Stream candidates are proud to announce that all of the following people have endorsed them as library trustee candidates, and we hope to add many more names in the weeks ahead. Of special note is the fact that this list contains several people who have played a direct role in the development and growth of our library as former and current library trustees as well as a highly respected Library Director who devoted 41 years of her life to the library. Also included are several current and former village trustees, recipients of the Carol Stream Citizen of the Year awards, and representatives from other village agencies such as the Park District. These are all respected citizens who care deeply about the future of Carol Stream, and the fact that they endorse all five of the STL candidates clearly sets our group apart from our opponents who offer nothing but bitter and deplorable campaign tactics.

We are deeply grateful for the support of all of these respected Carol Stream citizens:

  1. I'd like to add my endorsement of this slate of candidates. I believe they are the best choice for the Carol Stream Library Board of Trustees. I am a 15 year resident of Carol Stream, 2008 Carol Stream Special Citizen of the Year, and a current (since 2007) Carol Stream Public Library employee. I urge all of my Carol Stream friends to get out and vote in this election - and vote for these candidates!
