Misti Burns

Librarian

Misti was born, but not raised, in Winner.  The circle of life brought her back to Winner in 2011 and to the Tripp County Library in 2019.  Her love for reading, learning, and helping people makes working at the library a perfect match.  When she’s not at the library, she’s with her family of seven….husband Chris, daughters Taylor, Brooke, and Katie, and pets Mya May and Num-Nums.  In her spare time, she………what spare time?

Valerie Padmore

Valerie is a retired middle school teacher with a knack for books, writing, and making a killer lasagna.  When she’s not reading and writing, she’s doting on her fur baby Scout or trying to out-fish her husband Jim.
