InfoMarianne Sutton is currently the Berks County Prothonotary, serving her third term since 1993. During her administration, she initiated Legislation for the Prothonotary Fee Bill Act 98-164. As Prothonotary, she has implemented a one-number computerized docketing and tracking system for all Prothonotary filings. Additionally, an innovative collection system for protection from abuse case costs was created. She also opened an Archival Research Area for records dating from the early 1700s to allow genealogists easier access to the office's historic records in a comfortable atmosphere. For those individuals unable to utilize this new facility in person, she created and maintained the office's original internet website located at "www.berksprothy.com" from which researchers can search record indexes off-site, as well as e-mail requests for copies of these historic records. Most recently, Marianne initiated a digital imaging project in the Prothonotary's Office. Begun in March, 2002, all documents filed in the office are now digitally scanned and available on the office's computer database. Plans are to scan previously filed documents dating back to 1996, the date the current computer system was launched.

Her public service career began by serving two terms from 1985 through 1992 as Berks County Jury Commissioner where she was a Pennsylvania State Office holder for the Jury Commissioners and is currently an associate member. In July, 2000 she received an award as recognition by the Pennsylvania State Association of Jury Commissioners for the work she performed as Jury Commissioner in advancement of the Berks County Jury System. This was followed by her election as the Berks County Prothonotary in 1993.

Marianne is active in numerous professional organizations. She is a past Pennsylvania State Delegation Director for IACREOT (International Association of Clerks, Recorders, Election Officials and Treasurers). Marianne serves as the Director-At-Large Clerks Division, Delegation Training Director, as well as serving on the Educational, Legislative, Strategic Planning and Membership Committees. In addition, she served on the Host Committee for the IACREOT International Conference held in Philadelphia in 1997. She is also a Director of the Prothonotaries' and the Clerks of Courts' Association and serves on the Automation, Ways and Means and Reception Committees, as well as a member of the Mid-Atlantic Association for Court Management (MAACM) and the National Association for Court Management (NACM). In June, 2002, the University of Missouri presented Marianne with her Chancellor's Certificate in Public Administration (CCPA). Marianne is currently working on an Advanced Clerks Certification from the University.

Volunteer and community service organizations with which Marianne is associated include Director for Women's Counseling Services, Birdsboro Community Memorial Center, and St. Joseph Medical Center Auxiliary Board. She is the past President of the Birdsboro Rotary, past President of the Birdsboro Women's Club and Berks Muhlenberg Council of Republican Women, and many others. Marianne also volunteers her time as past Co-Chair of the Berks County Employee Volunteer Council and past Co-Chair of the Berks County Employee Council United Way Campaign.
