Rob Taylor

2023 Enlightenment Award Recipient

Robert K. Taylor

The Enlightenment Award is presented to those who have demonstrated their commitment to and passion for the mission of Providence Public Library, the ideals exemplified by a life of learning, and the value and importance of sharing knowledge. As we look to PPL's future as a leading 21st-century library, growing and evolving to bring bold new ideas to fruition while listening to and co-creating with our community, we are thrilled to recognize and honor Robert K. Taylor -- a long-serving member and former chair of PPL's Board of Trustees whose vision and steady leadership have been unparalleled in guiding the Library into its future.
