Annual Meeting of the Friends of the Hermosa Beach Library
January 31, 1962
The annual meeting of the Friends of the Hermosa Beach Library was held on January 31, 1962 at the Library. The meeting was called to order by the president, Mrs. Bea Bond. The secretary read the minutes of the last annual meeting. There was a request to correct the minutes to say "board of the Friends" rather than just the "board" to differentiate between this organization and the regular Library board.
The treasurer's report was read and is included in these minutes.
A recommendation by the board of the Friends was given that we set aside $100 from the past year's income toward a large globe for the new library. Mrs. Pat Gazin moved that we accept the recommendation; the motion was seconded and passed.
Mrs. Gazin reported that the foundations for the new library were almost finished and that the library would probably be finished in mid-summer.
The secretary read the results of the election. The change in Article IV of the by-laws was passed. This will include the Head Librarian and the past president as regular members of the board of the Friends. The new officers will be Mrs. Kay Pontious, corresponding secretary; Mrs. Kolma Flake, secretary; Mrs. Sako Miho, treasurer; and Mrs. Mary Edgerton, president.
Mrs. Bond presented Mrs. Edgerton to the membership and turned the meeting over to her. The new president introduced the new officers and gave a short acceptance speech. The meeting was adjourned.
Respectfully submitted,
