Graphic saying Progressive Brookline endorses Marissa Vogt for Library Trustee: “Our libraries serve as essential, inclusive community spaces that provide access to information, technology, and knowledge. Beyond books, they provide quiet study spaces, expert research assistance from librarians, digital access to bridge the "digital divide," and diverse programs for all ages. Marissa is a progressive stalwart, thoughtful, caring, and a champion of progressive causes, as evidenced by her voting record as a trustee and Town Meeting member. Her professional experience provides her with the skills for clear, concise, and impactful data analysis that serves all levels of the library and Town Meeting.”
