Pat Plamann
Name: Pat Plamann
Title: Business & Acquisitions Manager.
Education: Two years at UW-Oshkosh.
Job Duties: I maintain accounts payable and receivable, financial records, and cash flow in the library. I also place orders for new library items, office supplies, and supplies to process new items. Other duties include maintaining inventory, vendor and purchasing records; keeping track of donations, grants, fines, and book sale money; handling damaged or lost item fines and replacements. I also serve a shift at the circulation desk.
Full or Part Time: I work part time, about 30 hours per week. I have worked at the library for 22 years.
Favorite Thing To Do At Work: I love ordering and receiving new library items.
The One Book You Have Reread The Most: I just don't reread books. I'm sure that has a lot to do with the fact that I have books going through my hands every day that I want to read.
Personal: I have been married to Dave, the love of my life for 44 years. We have four children including Anna, who also works at the library; and four grandchildren Micah, Norah, Parker, and Brody. These children and grandchildren fill our lives.
Favorite Quote: "Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened." ~Dr. Seuss.
