The new and improved Beaufort District Collection opens to the public tomorrow morning at 10 am. The Research Room will be open Mondays through Fridays, 10 am until 5 pm -- except when we can't be -- as on declared County holidays, unscheduled mandatory hurricane evacuations, staff in-service days, or reduction in schedules on account of insufficient staff to offer customer service.
A Personal Reflection: It's been an arduous 9 year journey from the initial request I made to the Library Board of Trustees on September 18, 2001 to the ribbon cutting later today. Although at times I despaired that it would ever happen, I am so grateful for all the people and organizations that have helped me protect the "Wonders of the Beaufort District Collection" by giving of their time, talents, and monies. I am scared to mention anyone by name in fear that I will inadvertently omit someone. I hope the 150 angels of the BDC already know that I thank each and every one of you from the bottom of my heart. We done good. -- Grace
