MADISON COUNCIL BULLETIN | SPRING 2018 1 Simone Dinnerstein, David Rubenstein and Leland Melvin 2 MADISON COUNCIL BULLETIN | SPRING 2018 LETTER FROM THE LIBRARIAN ver the past 28 years, the James Madison Council has become an integral part of the nation’s library. Your generosity is vital to the Library’s growth and continued success in connecting students, teachers and lifelong learners everywhere to creativity, knowledge and ideas. We cannot thank David Rubenstein enough for his visionary leadership of the Council and for his work as one of the nation’s leading champions of literacy and reading. David is now playing a pivotal role advancing our vision for enhancements to the visitor experience in the Thomas Jefferson Building, the Library’s crown jewel. I am excited to share with you ambitious plans for our exhibition spaces and for the development of learning centers to maximize the experience for our nearly two million annual visitors. We are most grateful to Jay Kislak and the Kislak Family Foundation for a generous grant to establish the Jay I. Kislak Chair for the Study of the History and Cultures of the Early Americas. The Kislak Chair will add an important dimension to scholarship at the Library and will reside within the John W. Kluge Center. We thank the Council and Mike Strunsky, trustee of The Leonore S. Gershwin Trust, for generous support of the 2017 Gershwin Prize for Popular Song, which delighted many Members of Congress, Council members and other special guests when it was conferred on music legend Tony Bennett. We are grateful to Buffy Cafritz and Marjorie Fisher for co-hosting a memorable dinner in honor of Mr. Bennett at the beautiful Hay-Adams hotel. We thank Julie Opperman for making possible the Library’s new publication America’s Greatest Library: An Illustrated History of the Library of Congress , the first authoritative history of the Library published in nearly 20 years. We appreciate the support of Beverly and Lyman Hamilton which made possible a fascinating symposium that laid the groundwork for a landmark Library exhibition planned for 2020-21, The Two Georges. This exhibition will explore the overlapping worlds of George III and George Washington. We thank John Medveckis for his support of a Grammy Award-winning Viola Concerto by Pulitzer Prize winner and American composer Jennifer Higdon. This concerto was commissioned by the Library of Congress, the Nashville Symphony, the Curtis Institute of Music and the Aspen Music Festival. We also thank John for his acquisition for the Library of a stunning folio with early 19th Century Italian engravings of ancient and modern monuments in Rome. We are so pleased to welcome a number of new Council members: Maureen and Edward Bousa from Massachusetts; Mary Mochary of Washington, D.C.; Joyce and Thomas Moorehead from Virginia; and Craig and Diane Welburn of Virginia. It is a particularly impactful time to be involved with the Library, and I encoura ge each of you to suggest at least one individual who will further strengthen this enviable group of philanthropists. I am saddened to report the loss of founding Madison Council member Leonard Silverstein. Leonard was a staunch supporter of the Library, serving as Council Treasurer for many years. His dedication and enthusiasm for this institution were well known, and were instrumental to the Library’s success during the group’s formative years. He will be deeply missed by his many friends at the Library. We extend our deepest sympathy to his wife, Elaine; his children, Tom and Susan; his four grandchildren and his sister Marion. We are grateful to all of our Council members for your ideas, time and generous benefactions. Your philanthropic spirit energizes all of us as we embrace many new opportunities to extend the reach and impact of the nation’s library in an increasingly knowledge-dependent world.

  • Windsor's Importance in Vermont's History Prior to the Establishment of the Vermont Constitution
    PROCEEDINGS OF THE VERMONT HISTORICAL SOCIETY FOR THE YEARS 1921, 1922 AND 1923 CAPI TAL C ITY PRESS MONTPE LIER, VT. 192 4 Windsor's Importance in Vermont's History Prior to the Establishment of the Vermont Constitution A PAPER READ BEFORE THE VERMONT HISTORICAL SOCIETY AT WINDSOR IN THE OLD CONSTITUTION HOUSE SEPTEMBER 4, 1822 By Henry Steele Wardner Windsor's Importance in Vermont's History To be invited to address you in this, my native town and still my home, and in this, the most notable of Vermont's historic buildings, gives me real pleasure. That pleasure is the greater because of my belief that through the neglect of some of Vermont's historians as well as through the enter­ prise of others who, like myself, have had their own towns or group of individuals to serve and honor, the place of Windsor in Vermont's written history is not what the town deserves and because your invitation gives me an opportunity to show some forgotten parts of Windsor's claim to historic impor­ tance. Today I shall not describe the three celebrated conven­ tions held in this town in 1777, the first of which gave to the State its name, while the second and third created the State and gave to it its corporate existence and its first constitution; nor shall I touch upon the first session of Vermont's legislature held here in 1778, although upon these several events mainly hangs Windsor's fame as far as printed history is concerned. Nor shall I dwell upon Windsor as the first town of Vermont in culture and social life through the last decade of the eigh­ teenth century and the first quarter of the nineteenth, nor yet upon the extraordinary influence which the early artisans and inventors of this town have had upon industries in various parts of the world.

I heavily disagree with opening this closed area to bottom trawling. Closure areas were put in place to protect spawning grounds; Jeffrey's ledge is still a spawning area and should always remain closed. As someone who has lobstered in this area for over 8 years, I continuously see spawning groundfish in my traps and I am extremely concerned that opening this area will deplete the resource. lfthe resource is to recover, several things need to happen: Known spawning grounds need to be protected and remain so permanently. Secondly, over-efficient and in discriminatory means of catching ground fish need to be put in check and phased out. Lastly, the industry needs to be run from a scientific standpoint, not a political or economic one. The Gulf of Maine groundfish industry has serious underlying problems. Opening a closed area to fishing is not a solution these problems, it's essentially putting a Band-Aid on a gushing wound and it will not help. Allowing boats to tow in an area that's been closed for the last fifteen years might allow them to make extra money for a few weeks or months but it won't be before all the progress that has been made by closing the area becomes undone.
