We’re changing it up a bit by reading an article! Our next selection is “Public In/Formation” by Shannon Mattern. Places Journal, November 2016
Librarians in formation: Joan Spencer, Mildred Handy, Mollie Huston Lee, Beatrice Hamlin, and Maude Young, at the Richard B. Harrison Library, Raleigh, North Carolina, 1968. Lee founded the library, which was the first in Raleigh to serve African Americans. [Wake County Public Libraries]
