Friends of the Olympia Library

The next Board Meeting of the Friends of the Olympia Library will be held on Tuesday July 20 at noon in the library’s conference room. Download a board packet (PDF).

Addendum, Sales/General Meeting Committee Report:

We have a speaker for the General Meeting September 23.  J David Markham, the author of Napoleon For Dummies   will talk about Napoleon and the experience of writing a book for the Dummies series.  We are hoping that all board members will attend this event.  We will need lots of help.  The author may bring his Napoleonic snuff boxes and some art work, all of which will need to be monitored. At this point the agenda consists of refreshments, short  introduction of Board members and retirees, the author event and community  input.  We may  have  a presentation and installation of an interactive sculpture by sculptor Margo Westfall as part of  Theatre Puget Sound Arts Crush festival.  We’ll have more on that at the next Board meeting.

Sales Committee will be meeting with Cheryl and Sara Pete to explore a plan to involve businesses in support of the FOL.
