Excerpt:

John Stoneberg joined the library staff when the L.E. Phillips Memorial Public Library building on Eau Claire Street was only one year old.

Now, about 30 years later, he's been named director of the institution and will oversee renovation of that building.

"Right now the renovation plans are front and center," Stoneberg,55, said Wednesday, his first official day in the director position. He had served as interim director for the past month and a half after Michael Golrick and the Library Board parted ways.

Aside from the $1.57 million renovation project planned for next year, Stoneberg said the library's other big challenge will be navigating through tight budgets the city faces now and in the future.
