A committee of librarians who are known as the XTreme Team spearheads the Young Adult Services Department at the Public Library of Youngstown and Mahoning County. They are experts in the field of young adult services, all with Master of Library Science Degree's. The XTreme Team wants to hear from you about what you'd like in young adult services at the library. Go to the "Contact Us" link to send them a message.
 

Bev Chearno is the Adult Specialist at the Library with a Masters in Library Science from Kent State University. Mrs. Chearno has been with the library for over 30 years. Over that time, she was a children's librarian for nine years, a branch supervisor for three years, a regional coordinator and a specialist. In addition to helping select materials for both the adult and teen collections, she can be seen working at one branch or another as needed and really enjoys being a member of the XTreme Team.

Cindy Beach, a Young Adult Librarian, earned a Masters Degree in Library Science from Clarion University of Pennsylvania. Cindy can be seen working in the Austintown branch and would love for you to come in so that she can show you the teen room. When she is not helping people find great books to read she likes to spend time with her husband and three children.

John Waller is a Young Adult Librarian with a Master of Library and Information Science degree from Kent State University. John can usually be found lurking around the Brownlee Woods, Campbell and Struthers branches. When he's not working, John spends time with his wife and young son and is a semi-professional guitarist. He stays hip through a love of all kinds of music and by having a wife who is much cooler than he is.
