Mark Makuc

Mark Makuc, Monterey’s longstanding librarian, keeps the library scene alive and thriving with book clubs, art shows, holiday events, and youth programs—and he just oversaw the library’s renovation. Mark also cofounded the Monterey Oral History Project, giving him an opportunity to share his passion for the town’s history. Aside from his librarian duties, he responds to fire calls as one of the two captains of the Fire Department and has been the moderator for town meetings for 35 years.
