2025 Annual Report
A Message from our Board President
It is with bittersweet emotions that I am sharing that Morton Grove Public Library Director, Pam Leffler, will be retiring in April 2026. Pam has done an amazing job over her tenure by making our library one that continues to offer the highest quality and standard of service to our community.
Pam has led our library through challenging times and various improvements, while maintaining a strong commitment to championing our staff and serving our patrons. Throughout the Covid pandemic, Pam helped ensure services stayed available to the public while guiding the staff through the adaptability needed in uncertain times. One of the memorable building projects that began during this period was the wonderful reimagining and renovation of our Youth Services department.
Throughout Pam’s 35-year career working in public libraries, she has carried her passion for service to the community, advocacy for literary access, and expertise in library knowledge.
Pam is an avid traveler and a dedicated mother and grandmother, and I hope retirement will offer more adventures and quality time with her loved ones.
I can confidently speak for the entire board and staff in saying we will truly miss Pam’s leadership, dedication, and partnership, and we wish her the very best in her next chapter.
