Season’s Greetings from Us
No magic from elves, reindeer, or sugar plum fairies
made this blog post possible for the Autry Libraries.
Instead it came from a hardworking team.
Read beyond the slideshow to see what I mean…
.
MARVA, her vision and guidance keeps us on track
and with the most unique name, she leads this pack.
MALLORY, a friend to Dortort, Roy & Dale.
A wizard with WordPress, she works it without fail
HOLLY, crafts finding aids with focus and speed.
She’s all about the archives thanks to N.H.P.R.C.
CHARLIE, “the Brit” and expert of everything Theo.
Her worldliness in photography makes an impressive portfolio
CHERYL, treasures can’t be found without this Cataloging Queen.
Just a mere offering of bubble wrap and books will be seen
MANOLA, as a keen tracker, she’s the best researchers’ tool.
If you think she can’t find something, then you’re a fool.
LIZA, archivist, librarian, and Excel spreadsheet geek;
she and the rest will be gone this particular week.
It is not a tale, it is true,
the Libraries will be closed from December twenty-six to January two.
Until then, enjoy this gathering of collection images
capturing the spirit of past seasonal scenes and visages.
Picked with care for your entertainment
and even to go with this sing-a-long statement.
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And days o’ lang syne!
From the Library Ladies of the Autry National Center
we wish you a Happy New Year and a Oh-so Jolly Winter!
