TWENTY YEARS OLD. Hermosa Beach Friends of the Library marks its 20th anniversary right now. Spring, 1980. Two decades of promoting library usage, extending library services, luring gifts and readers to the library, bookish excursions, benefits, book sales. Two decades well invested.
To celebrate the anniversary, Friends of the Library will host open house for all readers and members, 3:00 P.M. to 6:00 P.M. on Saturday, May 17. Share a festive punch and renew acquaintances and make new ones. If you haven't already, meet our new librarian, Louise Simpson Mazerov.
Mrs. Mazerov, who holds a master's degree in library science from U.S.C., is a California native and an employee of the Los Angeles County Library for nearly six years. She is also a recent bride. She grew up in Gardena, studied at Harbor Junior College and at Long Beach State, where she met Richard Mazerov, her future husband. She collects unicorns (the unicorn is a mythical beast and a symbol of loyalty and purity). Her favorite reading is science fiction and fantasy.
Next book sale June 7, 1980 at 10:00 A.M. at Library. Volunteers needed.
Farewell to Shari Petresky was informal, as her transfer date was uncertain and Friends were unable to arrange a departure event. However, she was bidden a fond farewell by Friends of the Library with a gift plant.
In response to our recent notice, membership renewals have been coming in at a rapid rate. Thanks to old and new members for renewed support, now more vital than ever.
