A
look at the November CLA reception at the
California State Library
The
California State Library on Sacramento’s Capitol
Mall was lit up Sunday, November 12 when over 400
guests from the California Library Association’s
annual conference
joined State Librarian Susan Hildreth and many
other members of the California State Library
community for a 2 hour evening gala hosted by the California
State Library Foundation and Infopeople.
The
conference reception in the Stanley Mosk Library
and Courts Building took place in the Memorial
Entrance Vestibule, the State Librarian’s
office, Gillis Hall and the “old” Circulation
and Catalog Room.
Reception guests were particularly taken
with the grandeur of the State Librarian’s
office and the immense Maynard Dixon murals
covering many of the public walls.
Rivkah Sass of the Omaha Public Library
called the building “incredible,” and said the
“physical space of the State Librarian’s
office befits the position.”
