Letter: Wilton Library assistant director is retiring Dec. 16, 2020 FacebookTwitterEmail To the Editors: After 24 years of an outstanding career and loyal service to Wilton Library, Mary Anne Mendola Franco, assistant director - technology and private events, will step down at the end of this month. Mary Anne’s tenure at Wilton Library (WLA) is indeed emblematic of the library’s growth and evolution. She often recalls that her career at WLA began as a part-time administrative assistant and as her appreciation and love for the library grew, she decided to pursue a master of library science degree. Along with that accomplishment came increasing job responsibilities that enabled her to work in almost every department of the library. She also directly contributed to many of the awards that Wilton Library received, including two Connecticut Library Association awards for Excellence in Public Service.
