Women of Library History - Frances Lander Spain

Frances Lander Spain was the fourth Coordinator of Children's Services at
New York Public Library and was the first children's librarian to become
ALA President in 1961. I interviewed her while I was at NYPL when she was
94 and she was still reading AMERICAN LIBRARIES. Her comment was: "Not much
is new. Council seems to reinvent the wheel!"
