      Page 33: "Miss Miss Mamie McLemore was librarian in 1914 and 1915, when with the help of Miss Ruby Aubere, the Havana librarian, the books was reclassified and a regular library system employed."

      She appears to have cared for her parents, and at the age of 54 was still single and living with her widowed father. She worked in sales and as a clerk at various stores, and as of the 1930 census was serving as a county probation officer in Mason County, Illinois.
