NYSL: Rita Atterton

Rita Atterton, a longtime member of the Library's staff, died on October 11, 2006. Mrs. Atterton worked at the Library from 1968 to 1995, and many members will remember her as the lovely blonde English lady at the front desk. In addition to various circulation duties, she maintained the membership records and kept track of hundreds of member book requests. After her retirement, she continued to visit often with her husband, Jeff. Rita will be sorely missed by her many friends among the staff and members.
