Library Exhibit:

After a 2-month hiatus the library exhibit was installed on July 30 at the Rock Road branch of the St. Louis County Library on St. Charles Rock Rd. in St. Ann (it’s just west of the Vatterott College building). At the meeting in July, Gussie Freese accepted the Chairmanship of the Library Committee. Responsibility for the individual libraries was divided up among the members:
Libby Yunger: Rock Road (Aug. 2007),
Bridgeton Trails (Nov. 2007),
Mid County (Jan. 2008),
Indian Trails (May 2008).
Gussie Freese: Lewis and Clark (Sept. 2007),
Grand Glaize (Sept. 2008),
and Sachs (Oct. 2008).
Jan Pocock: Daniel Boone (Oct 2007),
Main Library (Dec. 2008 – Libby will help since it’s a large exhibit area).

Prairie Commons (July, 2008)
Sally Siebe: Tesson Ferry (March 2008),
Cliff Cave (June 2008)

The member in charge of each library is responsible for checking out the facility in advance, and to arrange for setting up and removing the exhibit in the designated month.. The library must have a suitable locking display cabinet.
