## Resource

Washoe County’s library board just got a fresh face with Andrea Tavener and Marcus Nesbitt elected after four nail-biting rounds from 25 candidates. Tavener, with deep library experience, is laser-focused on securing federal and state funding through a solid strategic plan by year’s end. Nesbitt, a security pro who stayed quiet at the meeting, brings an unknown but vital perspective. Both start July 1 and serve until June 30, 2030 — an eight-year commitment. Plus, Commissioner Alexis Hill is now stepping into the critical liaison role between county commissioners and the library board, a position unseen since 2015. The community’s message?
