Anderson and Hjort, along with Sam Bunge who was unable to attend, were recognized by the Friends of Petersburg Libraries for their years of service to Petersburg's libraries.
Over 35 people were in attendance at the Petersburg Public Library on Saturday where the Friends of the Petersburg Libraries kicked off National Library Week by recognizing three community members for their dedication to Petersburg's libraries and young readers.
"Today we celebrate our libraries and our kids, they are excellent readers," read Friends of Petersburg Libraries vice president Marilyn Menish-Meucci from a statement written by president Sue Paulsen. "It takes a village to raise these readers and this village has been working at it, very successfully, for a long time."
