NASHVILLE - Partly in response to anticipated growth and patron needs, the Harold D. Cooley Library is staffing a new position - Assistant Library Director. Megan Milam, currently one of two library assistants along with Melody Pridgen, will be filling the role as of July 1.

One has to do with demographics, one with recommendation and support for the position from the State Library of North Carolina, and the last being a need for a "succession plan" if the director is unavailable.

ROCKY MOUNT -- Accepting the prestigious Dudley Whitley Award was a tremendous honor for Nash Central High School long-time Athletic Director Kyle Bain.
But how it came to fruition will always be just as memorable for Bain.
The Dudley Whitley is Nash County Schools' most prestigious award, given annually to only one teacher/coach in the county.
