SRAC's Ted Keir stands next to the new SRAC Lending Library |
Over 100 books covering Native American history to regional
archaeology fill the shelves of a new lending library at the Susquehanna River Archaeological
Center (SRAC). The books are available
to all SRAC’s members to sign out and use for research and/or leisure.
The books have come from many sources including SRAC’s Ted
Keir who built his private library over many decades. Keir explained, “Over the
years when I saw a book about Native American Indians I would buy them. When I was
a teacher, I would even bring some to school for when I covered study hall for students
who didn’t have anything to do.” Other sources include private book collections
of other SRAC members to include cofounders
Dick Cowles and Deb Twigg.
SRAC’s Deb Twigg added, “We are always looking for ways to
enhance SRAC’s membership experience. Right now members get the SRAC Journal
several times a year, discounts on every event, a free annual luncheon and
other things all year long, and the lending library is another great addition
to what we already offer to our membership who pay as little as $15 per year.”
