New Updates - Be sure to hit Refresh http://www.rootsweb.com/~flsgs/statelib.html I have added the following: Statement on the Division of Historical Resources - Very important - please read. Approximately 10 new supporters from the Senate and the House Please check the list to see if I missed one that contacted you in support of saving the State Library. We want to add all legislators who have spoken out to help us. I would also urge you to send each one a thank you. By the way, I heard from Senator Ken Pruitt today and I feel that if we have him on our side, then we have a very good chance. He is the Appropriations Chair and also loves Civil War History. I have included a new web address that will make it easier to send e-mails to your legislators. Updated letter from Barratt Wilkins, former state librarian - posted Monday. And Don't forget to sign the online Petition. Today they are having some technical difficulty due to the large volumes of email and also people from out of the country wanting to sign. This is good. <G> So, they asked if you could not get in today, keep trying. http://www.floridahistory.info/petition/ I know many of you are probably tired of getting these updates, and I cannot apologize. <G> But, I can honestly say that the e-mails appear to be working for us. We must save the records and documents that preserves our family history in repositories such as the State Library and Archives. We must do all that we can and not become complacent. We only have until March 4th. And, please feel free to send this on to other lists. Thank you.
