FORMER ANA LIBRARIAN WINS EXHBIT AWARD FOR "LIBRARIES AND NUMISMATICS"

Pete Smith writes: "The last issue of The E-Sylum mentioned exhibits
in the literature class. I would also like to mention another exhibit
in the General or Specialized class. Former ANA librarian Nancy
Green exhibited Libraries and Numismatics. For this she won the
award as Best First Time Exhibitor.

Nancy writes: "I was thrilled to be named "Best New Exhibitor" in
Denver. I figured if I got any ribbon that would be great (I got a
second in the class) but this was very exciting. I have never
collected numismatic literature since it was a conflict of interest
while I was Librarian; but Glenn Smedley gave me the idea of
collecting library items when he showed me a medal honoring Carl
Sandburg and the Chicago Public Library. I have had a great time
with the collection. The full title of the exhibit was, "Libraries
and Numismatics, Or How One Collector Found a Niche."
