The Warsaw Community Library Board of Trustees said their official "good-bye and thank you" to longtime board member Don Sweatland Monday.

The board presented Sweatland with a plaque commemorating his five years of service. He is the immediate past president and was influential in overseeing the library renovation completed last year.

Sweatland joined the board in June 1994 and stepped down this February.

In other business, the board approved a mission statement developed by the board's technology committee.

A key goal of the mission statement is to provide the most up-to-date information and education technology to the library patrons and the community. Projects that are the focus of the current three-year plan are to develop and use the Internet, research and develop an effective distance learning capability at the library, and continue the upgrade of library computer hardware and software.
