Remembering Elizabeth Segeberg

We here at Harvey-Mitchell Memorial Library are currently mourning the loss of our dear staff member Elizabeth Segeberg. She passed away on April 27th, 2025 after complications from a sudden heart attack. Elizabeth was one of our substitute librarians, and if you’ve been in for the last 6 months or so you’ve probably met her. As a great friend to the library even before she worked here, we ask you to remember her time with us. Details on her life and plans for her mourning can be found here
