Sometimes a quiet day in the library takes an unexpected turn. That’s what happened yesterday when Volunteer Coordinator Linda Okazaki fielded a phone call from a reporter on deadline.
Volunteers dropped everything to find additional information and Naylor arrived at the library but spent just a few minutes with her 3:00 p.m. deadline looming.
Naylor’s piece aired on Channel 2 at 6:00 p.m. and footage from the library made it into the final story. Linda had a brief on-camera interview and our gorgeous new sign (created by Judy Bodycote) was featured.
Kudos to Linda Okazaki, Gloria Hanson, Laura Spurrier, Judy Bodycote and Kim Cotton for their efforts to find information on the family. It was great to have some media attention for the library!

How cool! Great job!
Congrats for added visibility! Maybe that's why so many patrons were at the library yesterday like me. I made some great finds thanks to Steve Harris's huge city directory collection!
Congrats all round at CGS. Teamwork is alive and well at the CGS.
A big WELL DONE!!!! to all concerned.

How great that she called CGS, and that people were able to help with information on such short notice!
