CABL members spent part of October 30 at the Taliesin West Library with a very special behind the scenes tour.  Elizabeth has been the librarian there since 1986 and established the library and archives.  It was an amazing day listening to her stories about various people she’s worked with plus how one librarian makes a difference!
