Edward Elsner

The Oswego Public Library welcomes its new librarian, Edward Elsner to its staff. Elsner received his MSLS from the University of Kentucky and a BSME from Kettering University of Flint, Michigan. Elsner has over 10 years of library experience from Michigan and Kentucky which includes the automation of 6 libraries.

In 2004, Elsner established a library consulting firm to assist rural libraries in training their staff in technology, library automation, customer service and marketing. He developed a unique library classification system for WATCH (Women Acting Together for Change) while on a working holiday in Kathmandu, Nepal. He has published several articles in professional journals regarding library services.

Elsner comes to Oswego with his wife Zuni and their two children ages 7 and 1. He looks forward to living in Oswego and becoming an active participant of the community.

You really can’t have one without the other. This month, three Oswego High School teachers are in the “Teacher Spotlight” as they work hand-in-hand with one another.

When it comes to the United Way’s Annual Campaign, the staff at Oswego County Opportunities realizes full well just how important the success of that campaign is to the hundreds of individuals and families that are served through OCO’s many human services programs.
