Michigan Library Association Picks Local Resident Larry Neal as Librarian on the Year.

 Locally, In 2011 the Birmingham Bloomfield  Chamber of Commerce  picked  Larry Neal as it's 2011 Person of The Year.  That year ended with the successful passage of a millage in which the City would contract with the Baldwin Library for services.  That ended a seven year drought of full Library Services  for the City. 

The efforts that resulted in a Library for the City began in the Summer of 2010 when Mr. Neal first appeared before Commission to discuss ideas for renewed library services.
