Meet Our Library Team
Meet Eileen Brown
Eileen and her husband retired to Chincoteague in 2013 and quickly fell in love with the community. A few years after settling in, she began volunteering at the library, where she’s become a valued part of the team. She loves the warm, welcoming atmosphere the library offers—created by the patrons and coworkers who all share a deep appreciation for books, reading, and the joy that libraries bring.
Our Board Members
Meet Paul Miller, a retired microbiologist who specialized in cancer research at the National Cancer Institute of the NIH. He is a former President of the Library’s Board of Directors and has served as a member of the Board for the past six years.
