Re: Motion for library exhibits

[Jeanne Plank <plankmail@aol.com>]

    Please, everyone, do not forget that the AIS Foundation should be  
included in our thoughts and plans involving the AIS Library.  THe  
Hager/DuBose endowment trust is to be used specifically -- I'll grant  
you interest only for the first 20 years -- but nonetheless  
specifically for the AIS Library (or an AIS Library.)
    Funds in that account could be available for producing a more viable  
library -- "traveling," or on loan to appropriate locations, or even  
for renting a suite of rooms that would house library inventory in a  
more useful arrangement than is currently  in place. There are funds  
outside of the immediate AIS treasury, however anything we do should  
be in concert with the AIS Foundation as many of the inventory items  
in the AIS Library are items placed there by and through the  
Foundation -- such as all the Hager/DuBose memorabilia.
    It is anticipated that soon there will be photos available on line  
of some of the artifacts in the Hager/DuBose collection.
