Pros

Staff is comprehensively dedicated to service objectives and roles as public servants.

Cons

Very few, if any, and the only ones I can think of I largely attribute to regional culture differences. I'm not from the Mid-West so acclimating to the culture with this position being my first job after I moved, was largely the reason's for any challenging experiences; none of them really had to to with the library.
