Synopsis

Excerpt from Illinois Libraries, Vol. 40: Manuscripts Issue; Local History and Manuscripts Collection in Illinois; April, 1958

Many public librarians expressed interest in collecting local memorabilia and asked for suggestions in promoting the idea on a community level. The editors invite librarians and historians with experience in this subject to write for our readers programs for establishing local history collections. We wish to thank Charles E. Haggerty, Librarian, Danville Public Library, who has already aided this cause through his article, The Role of the Public Library in Preserving Local History, which appeared in the October, 1957, issue of Illinois Libraries.
