The school was unique in that two libraries were offered, allowing more than two or three classes in the library at a time. All of this space need- ed supervision however and Mrs. Shar- on Early was in charge as the head librarian and newly appointed coordin- ator of the elementary libraries. Work- ing under her direction were Mrs. Prier, Mrs. Beaman and Mrs. Yeager. Their jobs ranged from aiding students to locating materials to adjusting equip- ment to helping with the computers. PLJH's pride in its library was due to these dedicated ladies. l if H Z Mrs. Sharon Early Mrs. Wanda Beaman i . , 3. v 5 ,. Q J' I . W. fl, 1311?
