MINUTES OF SEPTEMBER 27TH MEETING May I pin-point a number of particularly interesting items in these minutes (copy enclosed) as follows: Item No.4: Item No.6 Item No.7 Item No.8 Chief Librarian's Report Membership Report Board Liaison Report Other Business, paragraph c) Mary Pearson, Honorary Member. Friends of the Library will, I am sure, welcome Mary as an honorary member - in fact she has been a very good friend of the Library, probably far longer than any of us. For a number of years she has provided flowers from her own garden for the Library, arranging them in vases in different locations in the Library, so that they can be enjoyed and appreciated by us all.
