Dear Friend of the Library:
As your new president, I wish to thank you for your good wishes and offers to assist us during this year.
We want you to meet our new librarian, Mrs. Carlotta Hoy. She brings to us a fine professional background and great enthusiasm for Hermosa Beach and our library. We are very happy to have her.
Our 1965 membership drive will be March 8 through 13. We hope you will renew your membership. Be sure to invite a friend or neighbor to visit our very fine library. To assist you in obtaining a current membership, contact one of our members who will be on duty at the library during the Membership Week. If you desire, phone anyone of our board for membership details. Yearly dues $1.00 for adults, 25¢ for children.
Our new board and appointees are -
Recording Secretary | Betty Evans | FR 95932
Corresponding Secretary | Mary Tyson | FR 66175
Treasurer | Willa Rogers | FR 29475
Librarian | Carlotta Hoy | FR 48973

Historian | Dorothy Olney | FR 22674
Membership Chairman | Carol Funk | FR 61322
California Collection Chairman | Beverly Corben | FR 23905
Our project this year will be to collect old or new books on California; its history, lore or fiction. If you have such a book and would like to donate it to the library contact our California Collection Chairman, Mrs. Corben. If you don't have a California book but an extra dollar, it too will help our collection grow. As a starter, my husband, John, and I are donating "Aerial California" by Kenneth M. Johnson to the library. Remember, all donated books remain the property of the Hermosa Beach Library and are not part of the County Library circulating system.
There are many new books in the library; Volume II of "Hurry Sundown", the "Italian Girl" and the very funny "The Joyous Season" by Patrick Dennis. Non-fiction books of interest are "The Shirpas of Nepal", "Queer Victoria" and "Squadron 44". Juvenile books are "Rosa" by Leo Politi, "The Rock and the Willow" for young adults and Beatrix Potter's "Ginger and Pickles".
Anyone wishing to help during our membership drive, please call Carol Funk, FR 61322.
