Our Library Story:

A Conversation with Suzanne Plaut

Saturday, October 26th, 2:30 p.m.

Suzanne Plaut has been a part of our library for nearly fifty years. She began as a volunteer, later
served as treasurer and in 1987 became the director, a post she held until recently. Join us as
Suzanne shares her memories of the library and the people who have made it the community
mainstay it is today. Not a dry recounting of dates and statistics, this informal event will be an
opportunity to learn how neighbors came together some 70 years ago to fulfill a dream of making
books and the power of reading accessible to all, an effort that has continued. Moreover, it will
be a story sharing time, a chance for us to share our own memories of this special place.
Light refreshments served.
