Bob Beer obvious choice for library board

Bob Beer is the obvious choice as the newest member of the Bluffton Public Library Board. Although he is the newest member, being appointed to fill an unexpired term, he may be among the most experienced of candidates, having recently left the board after completing a seven-year term.

With a new administrator at the library, we believe it is good to have board member who carries a solid "look-back" period of the library in mind. Beer has that. And, as the computer age continues to add its interesting demands on libraries, Beer's computer expertise makes his choice that more significant.

We applaud the school board's appointment to Bob Beer on the library board.
