Upcoming Meetings to Note

From the Rockford Public Library website:


The Executive Committee will meet on Monday, July 23 at 5:30 p.m., followed by the Board of Trustees meeting at 6:00 p.m. in the Friends of RPL Community Room at the East Branch Library.


As of right now, the meeting's agenda has not been posted on the web page.

Also listed on the website is the information about the Sullivan Center Open House. From the website:

From 6:00 - 7:00, enjoy light refreshments and sample programming from Paper Airplane, an acoustic guitar/vocal duo playing an eclectic mix of your favorite songs, Aloha Hula Girls Polynesian Dance Troupe and a viewing of Our City, Our Story with a presentation from the series' producer, Pablo Korona. The public spaces of the building will be available to tour during the first hour as well. From 7:00 - 8:00, attend a community forum led by Paul Logli, President of the Rockford Public Library Board of Trustees. Logli will outline the Board's vision of the Sullivan Center as a library programming space and an arts and cultural center for the community. We look forward to sharing our thoughts on how the Library could serve as a steward of this wonderful resource and hope you will join us for the discussion.

SOL urges the public to attend and to ask questions or raise any concerns anyone may have about the possible acquisition of the Sullivan Center.
