January 1972
Bring in new FRIENDS
MARK YOUR CALENDAR NOW...
The board of directors of Hermosa Beach Friends of the Library invite you to the annual general meeting, ten a.m., Wednesday, January 26, at the Library.
Program will feature election and installation of officers and discussion of new directions for the New Year.
Refreshments will be served.
We hope you enjoyed the glow of the Christmas decorations at the Library. FRIENDS bought a raft of new lights to replace aging ones and our Hermosa Beach firemen put them up; as is now their time-honored custom. As a gesture of appreciation FRIENDS presented the Fire Department with a five pound box of candy. A similar gift was tendered to the friendly library staff.
Gifts presently on display at the Library, all donated through FRIENDS in the past year, include a portrait of Mrs. Jacob Lockman by her son DeWitt Lockman, two Bruce Russell cartoon originals donated by the John Hales and two animal serigraphs for the children's section from Dr. & Mrs. Al Valdes.
Chairman Betty Evans was authorized to buy eight new volumes for the California Collection and the 1971 addition to the Gazin Collection is the AMERICAN INDIAN (two vols.).
Expenditures authorized by the board during the last year include: $90 for the additional records for the F. W. Flake Memorial Collection; $50 for two CHILDREN'S dictionaries; $50 for special cookbooks and an additional $12 for the California collection.
THINK ABOUT and come to express your views on: possible sponsorship of ascholarship; new theme for Libations for the Library; service to shut-ins; a tour of County Library headquarters.
