Docents take their places! Some Docents go to assigned locations; others go to the front steps to greet busloads of arriving school children for educational tours. On various occasions Docents “work” lectures and book signings and get a close-up look at famous people including such recent speakers as former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Ohio Gov. John Kasich, and TV and radio personalities Brett Baier, Hugh Hewitt, and Pat Buchanan. While “working” the Docents can attend the lectures–a very special benefit Docents experience for their volunteer service. Many recognizable VIPs pass through the Library doors.
If there are business or community events in the East Room or the theater other Docents serve as greeters and direct visitors to the proper event venue. There is hardly an event that takes place at the Library that doesn’t require Docents. There are weddings and receptions, concerts, school proms, corporate events, and just about any activity you can imagine.
