Scenic Regional Library was awarded the Missouri Library Association’s (MLA) 2025 Community Partnership Award. Assistant Director Megan Maurer accepted the award at a gala during the MLA Annual Conference in St. Louis on October 9.
The coalition has provided the library with funding to purchase more than 1,200 locking medicine boxes, hundreds of Deterra bags and other wellness supplies for library patrons.
The library has hosted Prevent+Ed’s Certified Peer Specialist trailer at several branches, affording patrons the opportunity to get immediate assistance. Several Scenic Regional library staff have served on the HOPE Coalition. With this partnership, the library’s St. Clair branch acquired a naloxone vending machine for free naloxone distribution. A second machine was installed at another branch in 2025. The library has disbursed more than 1,000 doses of life-saving naloxone from this collaboration.
