HERMOSA BEACH
FRIENDS OF THE LIBRARY
550 Pier Avenue
A happy new year and new challenges.
The city of Hermosa Beach is now in its seventieth incorporated year; Friends of the Library approaches its eighteenth birthday and our new library building is fifteen years old.
COME Wednesday evening, January 26, 7:30 p.m. for our annual general meeting and election. (By-laws require general meeting before January ends.) Bring this ballot, new FRIENDS into the fold, and suggestions for any changes or new directions you'd like to introduce. Our goal has always been to bring to mutual focus the services the library has to offer.. and needs which readers anticipate.
This year's Christmas present to the library from FRIENDS is a six by ten games rug for the children's section. Very popular with the young set. And delivered well before the holidays. Delma Peery's special gift was a set of Beatrix Potter jigsaws!
Our December booksale netted more than $160, so we start the new year with some seed in the kitty.
Staff reports there is SRO list for the new Alex Haley book ROOTS and several other best sellers. Which leads to a suggestion for a new project for FRIENDS. To be discussed at the meeting.
