The Bard Street Bookstore and Five Funds
In 2006 the Friends ran a bookstore on Bard Street under a Hermosa Beach Friends of the Library sign. Shoppers browsed its shelves and tables. A Charlotte Malone's Bestsellers Collection sign and plaque honored her service. In November the Treasurer recorded transfers to the Charlotte Malone and Betty Evans memorial accounts. Bill Malone thanked Toni Empringham for membership support with a 2007 card, the sale schedule and notice of Monday warehouse hours. By December 31 the Friends had transferred $10,000 to Smith Barney for five fund accounts: Belasco, Gazin, Library, Charlotte Malone and Betty Evans.
