What makes this award special?

Employees are nominated by the people they serve — our library patrons.

This ensures the recognition truly reflects the impact our staff make in the lives of our community members every day.

WHY TRAILBLAZER?

The name reflects the pioneering spirit of our exceptional team members who lead the way with their creativity, dedication, and community focus — values that define Trails Regional Library. We are proud to honor those who make a difference every day. The Trailblazer Award is just one way we say thank you.
