The membership voted by mail ballot by a vote of 79 to 5 (with 13 > abstentions) to make the move. This culminates an amicable association of > 35 years with the library. However, space concerns, continuing theft of > books (this is a non-circulating library), and fewer volunteers to help out > with library maintenance in recent years prompted this decision--not any > dispute with our friends at the library. The Cape Girardeau County > Commission is allowing the move, with the stipulation that the agreement be > reviewed annually to make sure it works for all parties. > > The Archive Center contains many of the original records, and we hope that > placement of our library at the Archive Center will make research in Cape > Girardeau Co. even more convenient. The Archive Center hours, for those who > have not visited their website, are: > > Sun, M Closed > T, W 9-5 > Th 9-7 > F 9-4:30 > Sat 9-2 > > Any local members who want to help with the move can contact me, or come to > our May meeting (May 24 at 7:30 p.m. at Riverside Regional Library--where > we will continued to have our meetings). > > ----Bill Eddleman, President, Cape Girardeau Co.
