Address to In-Service Training Committee Workshop

Lumberton, September 13, 1972

Abstract

It's a great pleasure to be here and to speak on behalf of libraries, librarians, staff members, and all people interested in libraries. It's a special pleasure for me to be here in this building - such a lovely library that will fill a great need in this county and one that's a model for other counties to follow. I want to pay special respect to Mr. John Stedman, without whose efforts we'd still probably be thinking about a library. I also want to pay respect to another citizen of this county, Hector Maclean, with whom I have worked for many years in North Carolinians for Better Libraries. This organization has helped in the past and though it is sort of waiting in the wings now, I feel sure will come to the aid of libraries again.
