News…From the Carolina Room

Jane Johnson

Manager, Robinson-Spangler Carolina Room

Main Library, 310 N. Tryon, Charlotte, NC

704-416-0152

 

It has been my pleasure to serve the public for the last 21 years as an employee of the Charlotte Mecklenburg Library. I want to thank all who have come here to use our space in the Main Library for research, those who have donated time, materials and volunteer hours, and those who use cmstory.org and have not had the pleasure to visit us in person. With this last newsletter, I want to introduce you to Leonora Kaufmann, who is the new Carolina Room Manager, until my replacement is hired. If you need assistance, please do not hesitate to call and ask for her or the NCR staff at 704-416-0150. Librarian Shelia Bumgarner has volunteer to continue the newsletter, so you will hear from her in the future about our great new resources and programs.

 

Our cataloguers have been extremely busy to add these new materials to our collection between 8/1/2018 and 8/31/2018. To search the Library’s entire catalog, please visit https://www.cmlibrary.org/. To learn more about library services and programs, go to https://cmlibrary.org/services.
