May, 1938 -- 2 Mayor Caldwell moved that the Board allow the Librarian attend the annual convention of the American Library Association which is to be held in Kansas City, June 13-18. It was seconded by Mr. Shaw, and passed unanimously. The possibility of the Library sponsoring a Book Fair for Shreveport during National Book Week, November, 13-18 was discussed by the members. It was decided informally that we postpone the decision to definitely have one until after it has been looked into more thoroughly. The Librarian stated that during the Greek Ahepa Convention, the Chamber of Commerce, who is in charge of arrangements, asked if the library would permit them to have a ceremony on the lawn, June 11, in the afternoon. The Board informally agreed. Monthly reports of the City and Parish were passed out to the members. There being no further business the meeting adjourned. ___ Chairman. ___ Secretary.
