The Library suffers a grievous loas in the untimely death of Mrs. Lois Sevareid. She gave unstintingly and faithfully of her time and her wealth of knowledge because she believed that education is vital to growth, and that free access to books made education available to everyone. The distinguished background that Mrs. Sevareid brought to her work will not easily be replaced. She had traveled and lived in many parts of the world, and in each had studied the history, customs, people, and politics of the country. From this broad base, serving as Chairman of the Book Committee, she influenced the selection of books which enlarge the scope of the Library so that newcomers never fail to wonder at the variety of subjects in a small library. She was a voracious reader herself, and her reading encompassed an extremely broad field; this wide familiarity with many subjects was of inestimable value in the recataloging project under way. In addition to her technical competence, Mrs. Sevareid brought a zest and enthusiasm to the work which will be deeply missed - as she, herself, as a person will be by all of us who knew her for too short a time. The finest tribute we can pay her is to carry on the project to which she gave so much.
