About meWe are volunteers and members of the JTEL board of directors.

About my libraryThe John Trigg Ester Library is a small membership library in Ester, Alaska. It has about 5,000-7,000 volumes (we haven't catalogued them all yet), several hundred of which reside in the Calypso Farm & Ecology Resource Library. We're raising funds to construct a new building, so we can move our overly-crammed shelves out of the little rented room they're in now and put them in a nice big spacious library where we can hang out and read 'em all!

We have one outbuilding constructed so far: the Ida Lane Clausen Gazebo, an 8-sided structure used for parties, a quiet reading nook, music practice, and as a staging area for Readers on the Run. The motto we have on the stoop of the gazebo is one from Erasmus: "When I have a little money, I buy books, and if there is any left over, I buy food."
