- Description:
- Letter from James R. Wright, Chairman of the Black Caucus of the American Library Association, to Augusta Baker, wishing her a happy retirement and stating, "In my meeting with Jean, we discussed the possibility of establishing an ALA Scholarship for Minorities ... I immediately suggested that it be named in your honor since you are retiring this year. There is a possibility of other names being suggested, but all with whom I have spoken with think that it would be a great tribute to you for the service you have provided the profession in general and black people in particular".
