Feedback: The California State Library hears from you! Governor lauds California State Library Research Bureau On
August 25, 2006 Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger sent Susan Hildreth
an official letter in which he praises CRB’s DVD, “Bringing Young People to
the Policy Table.” Here is the
complete text of his letter: Dear
Ms. Hildreth, Thank
you for writing to me and sharing the educational DVD.
I always enjoy hearing about initiatives that are helping to nurture the
young people of California. I
also appreciate your remarkable efforts to promote the role of our future
leaders in the important issues facing our state.
Your commitment to our youth is carrying forward the California State
Library’s proud legacy of enhancing education and enriching our communities. Again,
thank you for your letter. California
relies on education leaders like you who care about the well-being and success
of our children. Sincerely, “Excellence”
of California State Library’s California History room Last
week and the week before, my wife and I had the privilege of doing research for
our book in the California History room of the California State Library and we
wish to express our appreciation not simply for the facility, its holdings and
the excellence of the preservation, organization and arrangement but for the
incomparable quality of the staff. John
Gonzalez and the several members of the staff could not have been more
supportive, helpful, knowledgeable, and downright enthusiastic in serving our
needs and those of every other visitor whom we saw there.
We commend you and all concerned on the operation of this important
function of state government. We have
both joined the California State Library Foundation.
Thank you. Robert
