    Libraries Support Family Members of All Ages
    (H.W. Wilson Company, 2006) Rae, Susanna-Judith
    Indiana libraries have long supported my family. When toddlers, my children enjoyed "story hour." In the early 70's, how exciting it was when my son Robby, about three years old, was on the local news as one of the first patrons of the Indianapolis Marion County Public Library's (IMCPL) brand new Southport branch. On more than one trip to the main branch of the IMCPL, elementary school-aged Mike and I turned microfilm reels in order to read headlines, weather, birth announcements, and other engrossing news of February 4, 1972, the day of Mike's birth. (His being born in the car on the way to St. Francis Hospital--when the wind chill factor was 28 degrees below zero--made it even more intriguing.)
