Friends of the Library Annual Meeting

The Friends of the Santa Fe Public Library will hold their Annual Meeting on Sunday, January 8th at 2:00 p.m. at the Main Library, 145 Washington Avenue.
       The public is invited to attend the naming of the Edward H. Tatum Community Room. The late Mr. Tatum was a generous supporter of the Library. He was a former librarian, author and bank president, serving as the president of the First National Bank of Santa Fe from 1962-1968 and 1971-1973.
       Immediately following the Annual Meeting, there will be a presentation by adventurer Greg Bemis. For the past 30 years Bemis has been a Director, Chairman and principal owner of The Ocean Corporation, the world's leading educational facility for commercial divers. He has carried on extensive research and investigation of two of the world's greatest maritime disasters, the Lusitania, sunk in 1915, and the Estonia, sunk in 1994. His interest in the oceans has been a guiding influence in his life.
       Refreshments will be served. The program is free and open to the public.
