Florence Lyimo

Keeper of the genealogy

🇹🇿 Kinondoni, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania
Cedar Grove Public Library
Since 1993
English, Swahili

I've worked at Cedar Grove Public Library since 1993. If there was a question, we'd find an answer, or at least a book that might help. I learn every name in the first week. A library should feel like a living room. Hearing from old faces is the best part of my week.
