With your professionalism and dedicated service at the Ref Desk, and for years now with this wonderful blog, you have not simply informed the community of all that PGPL has to offer, you have engaged the community in a way that is just so perceptive. Your departure leaves a huge hole in the state of "community service" in the little City of Pacific Grove. <br />Fondly, Ellen Gill PastoreUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03642802128547789493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3074642614941879999.post-9488605592876556152011-04-23T13:27:24.346-07:002011-04-23T13:27:24.346-07:00Mystery writer Cara Black did present a wonderful ...Mystery writer Cara Black did present a wonderful program at PG Library this week, April 21. <br />The above post has a typo to say she will be here on May 21.<br />Sorry for any confusion!Catrina, PGPL Reference Staffnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3074642614941879999.post-82002963914534329592011-04-23T12:35:23.169-07:002011-04-23T12:35:23.169-07:00Pamela, you are the best and Pacific Grove has bee...Pamela, you are the best and Pacific Grove has been so very fortunate to have had your care and your skill for all of these years.

He wrote.... <br /><br />"Three cheers (actually more) in congratulation to Ashlee and wishing her great success with her new position. The blog is a great tribute to Ashlee's many contributions to PGPL. <br /> <br />If you'll recall, Ashlee started her library work on the Monterey Peninsula as an Archives Intern (in partnership with the University of Washington program) in the California History Room and Archives at MPL. <br /><br />She quickly mastered the basic archival principles and procedures, and her work quickly resulted in several contributions to the History Room. Most recently, she returned as a paid staff member to process the daunting and disorganized collection of environmentalist Margaret Wentworth Owings. She was unflappable in her determination to properly house, arrange, and describe the collection. <br /><br />I only wish she could continue her work here (with far more hours). She has become indispensable as a processing archival assistant. As you noted, her amazing organizing skills, enthusiasm, public relations skills for patrons of all ages, and talents in general will be greatly missed in the history division and throughout the Monterey Public Library."Pamela, Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03993761561078065950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3074642614941879999.post-42131761934348294652011-03-18T10:30:55.105-07:002011-03-18T10:30:55.105-07:00Good Luck Ashlee!

We are cataloging it, and it will be ready for circulation on Saturday, January 22nd. Anyone with a Monterey or Pacific Grove Library card may check it out.<br /><br />Our Library does lend books to other libraries, (for their patrons), via Inter Library Loan. However, we do not loan our new books until one year after we have received them. This title will be available for ILL in 2012.<br /><br />I do not know if the family has additional copies available for purchase. You would need to contact them directly.<br /><br />Thank you for your interest in Mrs. Bray and the PG Library.<br />-PamelaPamela, Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03993761561078065950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3074642614941879999.post-16021225611295742662011-01-19T07:13:36.672-08:002011-01-19T07:13:36.672-08:00the best news of all - a Foundation at long last! ...the best news of all - a Foundation at long last! - polly -Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3074642614941879999.post-70762087560952125942011-01-15T13:59:25.774-08:002011-01-15T13:59:25.774-08:00I read in the Herald's Obit section that Mrs B...I read in the Herald's Obit section that Mrs Bray had a journal: Scratching the Surface.
