Box 8181 <br />Hillsborough, NC 27278 <br />Dear Mr. Jacobs: <br />am currently serving as Chairman of the Chapel Hill Public Library Board of Trustees <br />and am writing to you about Board member Evelyn Daniel, who represents the County <br />on our Board. <br />Dr. Daniel's term on the Board is about to expire. I have discussed her service with my <br />predecessor as Chair, Martha Diefendorf. Ms. Diefendorf has served on the Board with <br />Dr. Daniel for several years before I joined the Board two years ago. Ms. Diefendorf and <br />have the greatest respect for the knowledge and energy that Dr. Daniel has brought to <br />our work as Library Trustees. She brings a deep knowledge of library programs in the <br />US and how libraries are evolving with the rise of digital information and changes in <br />public demands for library services. She has an excellent attendance record at our <br />meetings and is always ready to take the lead on projects, most recently in developing <br />policies for the use of meeting rooms at the Library by the public, which she brought to a <br />successful conclusion after working with other Board members to weigh all the issues. <br />We understand that the County will have many things to consider in this appointment. <br />We just want you to know that we value the service of Dr. Daniel and would welcome <br />her reappointment. Thank you for your consideration. <br />Sincerely, <br />John N. Morris, Chair <br />CHPL Board of Trustees <br />cc.Commissioner <br />Earl McKee <br />Commissioner <br />Mark Dorosin <br />Commissioner <br />Alice M. Gordon <br />Commissioner <br />Bernadette Pelissier <br />Commissioner <br />Renee Price <br />Commissioner <br />Penny Rich <br />Ms. Donna Baker, <br />County Clerk <br />
