‘Masonic librarians to go electric for annual meeting’
The president of the Masonic Library and Museum Association announced today that a web-based virtual meeting will take the place of the physical annual meeting scheduled for September.
Who knows if it’s a premature decision? The announcement is to allow travelers ample opportunity to cancel flights and hotel bookings. The event had been planned for September 11 through 13 at Grand Rapids, Michigan.
“It is our plan to hold an electronic meeting to conduct the business of the organization,” said Brian Rountree in his April 4 letter to the membership. “At this time, it is hoped we can arrange to host a meeting on Saturday, September 12 at 3 p.m. Central time.”
Bro. Rountree, MLIS, is grand librarian of the Grand Lodge of Manitoba.
