The Gaithersburg branch of MCPL is located at 18330 Montgomery Village Avenue in
Gaithersburg. It was reopened to the public in 2014 after an extensive renovation and expansion. It is now a 21st-century library offering services for job seekers, new Americans, students, seniors, and young children.
Let's meet some of the Gaithersburg staff -

| Jen Meddings |
In the third grade, Jen Meddings was assigned the task of making a shoebox diorama of "what I want to be when I grow up." She made a tiny library. She was in it, of course, as the tiny librarian. She has been with MCPL for five years and currently serves as the Head of Adult Services. Over the past decade, she's also worked as a circulation clerk, a library associate, a children's librarian, and a bench jeweler (that one wasn't in a library). She owns the world's cutest dog and enjoys reading past her bedtime and hanging out with friends playing board games.
