MEETING IN NEW BERN -
At irregular intervals for the
past couple of years the
directors of the fifteen Regional
Libraries in the state of North
Carolina have been getting
together for a couple of days to
compare notes and study
mutual problems. The meetings
usually entail a lot of traveling
for some of us because of the
wide geographical area
involved. This time, I didn’t
have jiit'go very far since our
hostess was Elinor Hawkins of
the Craven-Pamlico-Carteret
Regional Library with
headquarters in a lovely
Colonial-style building in New
Bern. Distance did not seem to
deter the librarians from the
western part of the state since
attendance was very good with
twelve 'of the fifteen regions
Represented. There were three
relatively formal sessions held
in the auditorium of the Library
on Wednesday and Thursday,
September 12th and 13th. But
some of the most valuable
exchanges of information took
place, as usual, during the free
time spent on the beach by some
(Ididn’t make that), around the
swimming pool (I enjoyed
that), during meals we (we all
enjoyed that aspect of the
conference) and on the golf
course (the highlight for me!)

which was suffered by Frances
Sexton, the assistant librarian ,
at Tyrrell County Public
Library in Columbia. Her
husband, Earl Sexton, died
suddenly on . Monday,
September 10th. He will be
sorely missed by everyone who
knew him in his professional life
as a electrician or in his other
occupation as a gardener. His
fame was widespread as the
grower of some of the loveliest
roses in North Carolina. Our
hearts go out to Frances and I
know she has been touched by
the many kindnesses of friends
and neighbors.
Less unexpected but just as
saddening was the death of
Martha Burnham in Plymouth.
She was a frequent golf partner
of mine and very popular with
all the golfers of the Roanoke
Ladies Golf Association. This
six-dub organization plays a
series of tournaments each fall
and spring with the first one to
be hdd ih Plymouth this week.
The news of Martha’s death will
lend a sad note to this first
gathering of her golf friends
since she attended the final
tournament last May in
Williamston.

MAKING FRIENDS The
field trip to Raleigh which the
Staff of the Pettigrew Regional
Library made last week was
notable for many things but
making new friends ranks at the
top of my list. There were large
groups from three regional
library systems plus librarians
from several other counties
making up the chartered bus
load which embarked at 6 A.M.
in Elizabeth City for the day
long excursion.
All staff members in the
Pettigrew Regional Library
system were urged to
participate in this tour of the
State Library and other State
buildings. Taking advanage of
this opportunity were the
following: Louise Darby from
Edenton; Esther Davenport,
Pearl Furlough and Frances
Sexton from Columbia; Sheila
Furlough, Elva Riddick, Kim
Varin and myself from
Plymouth. In addition, we had a
guest (Frances Sexton’s sister
Blanche Moore) and two
trustees, Hortense Swain from
Tyrrell County and Frankie

of the Governor or his wife, but
we did enjoy the tour of their
formal residence. The staff ot
the State Library was
somewhat depleted (all the
consultants were “on the
road”) but we felt that our
mission was accomplished with
the tours of the various
departments which serve us
directly -r the Processing
Center, the Film Service, and
the IN-WATS Reference and
Interlibrary Loan services.
Bill O’Shea, Director of the
Wake County Library system,
made our luncheon
arrangements for us with the
City Club at the Sir Walter —a
rare treat for most of us. He
brought several members of his
staff to co-host with him as well
as architect John Rose who
happened to be visiting the
library on Wednesday. Natalie
Miller and Davis Waters of the
Department of Archives and
History also joined our group
for lunch as did Elaine von
Oesen, Assistant State
Librarian and several members
of the State Library staff. All in
all, we made a most congenial
crowd.
SCREECHES
NOT ENOUGH TIME As I
had begun to suspect when I
made the final arrangements
for the day’s activities, there
really wasn’t enough time to do
everything I had planned. We
had to rush through the Art
Museum, cutting short the tours
planned by Docents Ward and
Wagner. Some of the librarians
missed parts of the Capitol tour
arranged by Emily Dunn and

the Legislative Building had to
be skimped to allow time for the
exhibits at the Museum of
Archives and History.
The weather Wouldn’t have
been nicer (maybe my
worrying all night helped!) and
everyone agreed that the field
trip was worthwhile. We all
returned safely, tired but
pleased with a day well spent.
