COOK OF THE WEEK - LIVERMORE LIBRARY BOARD

Submitted by admin on Wed, 07/08/2015 - 7:30am

The Library Board of the Livermore Public Library consists of five volunteer members, one director and one assistant. The Library board provides community input, provides financial approvals and supports their community events sponsored by their library. I asked the board for a little bit of history on the Livermore Public Library. Floyd started out by saying, “The ‘Equality Club’ started in the kitchen of Julia Behounek” in 1935.” Then Myrna pulled out a book of history either of Livermore or the Livermore Public Library and the following are excerpts taken from a writing in 2005 of the library. The Livermore Public Library started in 1935, when the late Julia Behounek felt the need for a public library for her young boys, who were avid readers. Julia began discussing the need for a library with fellow Equality Club members, who were inspired by her enthusiasm. Julia served as chairman of the Livermore board for 25 years. Mrs. L. E.

Submitted by admin on Fri, 07/03/2015 - 10:17pm

As 22-year-old Daniel Edozie shared his life story, the fidgeting group of youth became more attentive. Edozie, who recently completed his eligibility on the Iowa State University men’s basketball team, was a special guest at the Humboldt youth basketball camp last week (June 24). Edozie talked about staying positive and overcoming challenges in life. Edozie, a 6-foot-8, 252-pound reserve forward for the Cyclones, didn’t have a typical childhood upbringing, surviving on the Skid Row streets of Los Angeles.
