It was the last Annual Meeting in this building.The air outside was crisp and clear and the atmosphere inside was crackling and cheerful.

 We heard from Kim Huffard, David Campbell, Louise Berry, and our Annual Meeting speaker Philip Van Munching...all great...but yes, it was bittersweet. There were reminiscences. There were thanks. There were kudos. There were laughs...and smiles...but, most of all, there was what holds us all together in the first place...this community...and the love that this community has for its Library. The anticipation for the Grand Opening of the New Darien Library is palpable. Remember the date: JANUARY 10, 2009.
