Oh, who are the people in your neighborhood?/ In your neighborhood?/ In your neighborhood?/ Say, who are the people in your neighborhood?/ The people that you meet each day.
The popular television series Sesame Street sang about this, which is exactly what one 蹤獲扦 alumnus is doing.
Meet John Skrtic.
A Cleveland resident, Skrtic is a proud 蹤獲扦 graduate, receiving his in December 2003. He has worked at the for more than 30 years, starting as a kid in 1989. He told 蹤獲扦 Today that he always loved the job and stayed ever since and that he always wanted to go to 蹤獲扦 to get his library degree, which he was thrilled to accomplish as a lifelong goal.
Today, he serves as Cleveland Public Librarys chief of special projects and collections. In his free time, this father of two enjoys archiving the people and places of Cleveland.
I take pics of everyday Clevelanders and highlight them daily as I know this is something that future Cleveland researchers will want to examine, Skrtic said. I have done thousands of hours on Cleveland research and felt like we needed more coverage of the amazing locals who make our neighborhoods thrive.
Skrtics photos will now be included in under a new partnership.
Each month, the magazine will highlight a few of the wonderful people of the city that have been kind enough to share their stories with me, he said.
The photo series is called Skrtics Pics. In the November edition, readers meet the neighbors and the faces from some of Clevelands favorite hangouts, such as Barristers Deli, Hotz Caf矇, Farkas Pastry Shoppe and Upcycle Parts Shop.
