October Employee of the Month is Keva Williams

Yesterday we had to hunt all over the library to find Keva. She was soooo busy shelving books that she didn't hear her name called over the PA system. Johnnie searched the aisles until she found her. By the time Keva walked into the workroom, she was wide-eyed and curious. Then when Melody handed her the Employee of the Month certificate of appreciation with her picture on it, her mouth dropped open in surprise.
Keva Williams is a beautiful young woman with dark hair and dark eyes, tall and slender, soft spoken, and very intelligent. She's worked for the Moultrie-Colquitt County Library System for 2-1/2 years as a shelver and circulation clerk. She is so meticulous at her shelving that someone said she even alphabetizes the books by each
author.
I first noticed Keva in the fiction section as she shelved books that had been returned to the library. She was quick and careful and studious. Then I noticed her at the circulation desk as she helped patrons check out books and answered their questions. She smiled and was polite to each person. One day I saw her in the genealogy library, typing in data on one of the computers. That's when I realized how multi-talented Keva is. And she's more than just a good employee!
Keva's a member of Grant Chapel AME Church in Moultrie. In April of this year her church put on the musical The Heaven Bound Play: Enactment of Life Pilgrimage at the Withers Auditorium. Keva played the part of a blind girl and COULD she sing! My goodness, what a beautiful voice!
Born and raised in Moultrie, Keva is the daughter of Dale and Avanell Carr Williams. She has a younger sister, Kameda. Keva is not only working at the library, but she is working on obtaining her Associates Degree in Liberal Arts from ABAC.
And I suppose it would not surprise anyone to know that Keva also likes to read. I've found that most people who work at a library have a love for books. Some of her other interests include traveling and spending time with her family.
From all of us who work with you, Keva, we say congratulations! You're well-deserving to be called October's Employee of the Month. And we're delighted to know and work with you.
