GIVE EVE HER LEAVE! Visit the link in our bio or bplpsa.org to fill out the form and automatically send a letter to Mayor Wu & the City Council urging them to grant Eve the leave she needs for her cancer treatments.

Someone facing a serious medical condition, a longtime and dedicated @BPLBoston employee and a wonderful person, deserves to be treated with respect and dignity!

Docket #0558 on p. 125 is a resolution from @EdforBoston in support of Eve Griffin, a @BPLBoston employee battling cancer whose sick time has become a major fight between @BPLPSA and City Hall. Read more from @GBHNews' @MarilynSchairer: #bospoli #mapoli wgbh.org/news/local/202…

We would like to express support for the recent resolutions passed by City Council and the Friends of the JP Library group to rename the Children’s Room at the Jamaica Plain Branch Library in her honor.

On May 21, 2024, the library world (and world at large) lost one of the greats. Barbara dedicated her career to public service and making the library a more equitable and welcoming place for all. Though her legacy lives on, we will miss her steadying presence and caring heart.
