Georgetown Library Donors Receive Advance Opening Sunset Tour

“I guess it was really a small price to pay in the end,” suggested archivist and librarian Gerry McCoy, pleased with his new surroundings.  Standing in the renovated Peabody Room of the new Georgetown Library – the very room where a fire caused damage to many of Georgetown’s priceless treasures on April 30, 2007 – McCoy welcomed some of the first patrons to the newly restored library building.

Donors to the restoration received a private sunset tour of the building Tuesday evening, the complete renovation of which was expedited considerably by the devastation of the fire and the community’s rally to rebuild.

Among the attendees of the event, which happened to be on the very day of the library’s 75th anniversary, were Head Librarian Ginny Cooper, Frida Burling, Anna Velasquez, Frank Babb Randolph, Robert Laycock and Stephen Meeter.
