Church Library

Today I'm mad about what they have done to my church's library. They have repainted it which it needed and then thery have ruined it. I was the second librarian at our church and followed a good one. It already had a beautiful table and comfortable chairs. After Ray died I gave the church his rocking chair and it was there. The church put in a sound system so babv's who were unhappy their parents could sit in the rocker and rock the child and listen to the sermon. I added a small child's table so when they had meetings there and had to bring a child the child could sit there and look through books from the children's section of which I had many. An air conditioner was added so meetings on hot night could be cool. Then one church member instisted on giving us a huge class doored bookcase that had belongerd to her son and he did not want it anymore but wanted a tax reductiion on his income tax. It had a couple of large drawers and a place for the computer. One member gave us a small bookcase for under a window with great books. However people did not check them out and it made her mad so she came and took it back and took it back home, We had the Third grade Bible class there and they were awed by sitting in such a nice room they were well behaved. Now I understand the children's table is floating around the church looking for a home, The fancy bookcase went into the archieves room where it is good and helpful and the beautiful table as wandered off into one of the other rooms. They are very proud of what they did but they should be ashamed of themselves for it is just another room now. They still have meetings there but the whole point of the room has disappeared. I understand they are even going to have a meeting and show people through it and probably brag about what they had done, but they should be ashamed. I am annoyed.
