The 2013 Book Bazaar is dedicated to the memory of two vital members of the Book Bazaar and Book Barn committees.
Patricia Boyet Millican: One of 7 founding members of the Friends of the LSU Libraries annual Book Bazaar. Pat has served as Co-Treasurer of the Bazaar since its founding.
Zelda Klein Long: Long-time Bazaar Committee member and long-time member of the Book Barn. Zelda is best known for her work with the ART Table. But served as Secretary and various other Bazaar Committees over the years.
Both have been mainstays to the Book Bazaar and Barn and will be deeply missed by all for their kindness and loving presence wherever they were.
