On Thursday, April 24, 2008, RPLS member librarians
came to the Scovill Banquet Center in Decatur
for the Rolling Prairie Library System biannual membership meeting. The
theme was a Luau. There was great food and fun!
RPLS honored those librarians and staff who have retired since our last
membership meeting, had a showcase of library successes and hula lessons
for the less inhibited!
Thank you to all of our members who
attended this year's meeting!! |
