Tanya Bamford Elected Board President of the North Wales Area Library

Bamford Strategies is proud to share that our President, Tanya Bamford, was elected Board President of the North Wales Area Library at the Library’s January Board of Directors meeting.

Tanya will serve as Board President for 2026, leading a dedicated Executive Board that includes Jackie Oberholtzer, continuing as Vice President; Hailey Nelson, continuing for another year as Treasurer; and Megan Joung, newly elected as Secretary. Together, this leadership team will help guide the Library’s strategic direction and support its mission of serving the community through access to information, education, and programming for area residents of all ages.

The North Wales Area Library plays a vital role in the community—serving as a hub for learning, connection, and opportunity. As Board President, Tanya looks forward to working alongside fellow board members, Library staff, and the many volunteers who generously give their time and talents to ensure the Library continues to evolve, thrive, and meet the needs of the North Penn community it serves.

Tanya also extends her sincere thanks to Suzan Leonard, who served as President of the NWAL Board for two years, and to Pamela Wilson, who served as Secretary for several years. Their leadership, dedication, and continued support have made a lasting impact on the Library and the broader community.

At Bamford Strategies, we believe strongly in supporting organizations and institutions that contribute to the vitality of our communities. Libraries, nonprofits, and civic organizations play an essential role in creating informed, connected, and resilient communities—and we are proud to support their work through both professional expertise and community service.
