A letter from the Dolores County Public Library Board, read aloud by the chair, said the board voted to recommend Henkins to fill the vacancy created by the passing of longtime member Caroline McCustin. The letter said Henkins submitted a letter of intent, interviewed with board members and “is enthusiastic and will bring some perspective and ideas from the younger generation in our community,” language read at the meeting by the chair.
