Atlantic Public Library Director Natalie Struecker, last Friday, submitted her resignation, which is effective August 1st. Mayor Dave Jones said Struecker is moving to Cedar Rapids to work for a bigger library that will obviously offer better pay. Jones said “We wish her well, she’s a very talented person.”

Struecker became the Library Director in Atlantic, in July, 2015. Prior to moving here, she worked at the Rock Island, IL, Public Library, and is a native of Des Moines. She attended ISU and later received a Masters Degree from the University of Wisconsin at Milwaukee. Struecker has a background in programming and technology and has worked in libraries over the course of the past 20-years, including in Atlantic.
