Some Stuff I Wrote and Some Stuff I Didn't (2011) H. Morris Williams
Bob was a true ambassador for the Library as a volunteer and later as an
employee.
Del Miles
In the early years of federal money for rural libraries, Del Miles knew
what a public library could mean for the community. She persuaded
County Commissioners of the benefits of libraries. As a result, Columbia
County joined the Suwannee River Regional Library system and had its
first public library. Del still is supportive and in 1990 raised funds from
several organizations for construction.
Gerald Witt
Gerald Witt has been an advocate for the Columbia County Library
since its inception. On becoming Mayor of Lake City, he became a key
player in negotiations between City and County. Adequate funding was
his goal, and he saw that his goal was achieved. Excellence in service to
the public was the result.
Read to Me
By Jane Yolen
Read to me riddles and read to me rhymes
Read to me stories of magical times
Read to me tales about castles and kings
Read to me stories of fabulous things
Read to me pirates and read to me knights
Read to me dragons and dragon-book fights
Read to me spaceships and cowboys and then
When you are finished- please read them again.
