Mrs. Libby, we wish you health and good fortune as you take your leave of the Library and the collection you have helped to enlarge and strengthen. Thank you for your dedication and for your absolute attention to detail. This Library and its people, patrons and staff will miss you.
Books are delightful society.
If you go into a room filled with books, even without taking them down from their shelves, they seem to speak to you, to welcome you. Here one can choose any one of our 1,800 folktales and be assured of an entertainig and insightful trip into the rich culture of a myriad of countries. Ancient stories passed down from generation to generation are retold by contemporary authors and illustrated in a variety of captivating styles. You have never sat through an entire movie without at least one device on your body beep or buzz. You know fifty e-mail addresses by heart, but you have to look up your own social security number.
