Our branch’s Distinguished Woman, Dr. Sharyl G. Smith, was our guest and speakeat the May 12th Installation Dinner. Dr. Smith taught private and public school library media programs for nearly 40 years.
Since retirement she has organized a
committee of prominent Utah library/

Utah’s school libraries. Her goal is to
help reinstate teacher librarians to
collaborate with classroom teachers and to teach students skills proven vital to their achievement throughout lifelong
learning. Dr. Smith was nominated by Karla Kelner.
