Today's post shows an undated brochure for Tan Oak Park, located in Leggett, Mendocino County. The brochure is from the Sonoma State Library's Gaye LeBaron Collection. The park was established in the late 1920s to accommodate those traveling on the recently completed Redwood Highway.

The park is still active today, 100 years after its creation! After many years operated by the organization Families and Friends United by AIDS, which provided support services to people impacted by HIV and AIDS, the Northern Mendocino Ecosystem Recovery Alliance is now working to establish a regional center for forest health, education, and emergency readiness and holds regular events.

The spring semester is done, and the summer is settling in here at the Sonoma State Library. But Seawolves left behind their finals notes, encouragement to classmates, and creative illustrations on whiteboards across the building for us to remember you. We wanted to share them with all as a reminder of the learning happening here.

Today is Election Day (for the primaries) in California. With voting on everyone's mind, the Sonoma State Library is looking back to elections past through our Special Collections. From the John Schubert Russian River Collection is a photograph of poll workers counting votes during the early 20th century. And then we have a fun reminder to participate in democracy, via a 2004 postcard in our National Women's History Project Collection.

Today we mourn the loss of jazz great Sonny Rollins by featuring one of his landmark, and rarer, albums. 'Freedom Suite,' his 1958 recording for saxophone, bass, and drums trio (with Oscar Pettiford and Max Roach providing bass and drums, respectively), originally included in the sleeve notes a poignant paragraph about the inhumane and hypocritical treatment of Black Americans. Riverside, the record label, quickly reissued the LP under a different title without the controversial paragraph. The Sonoma State Library is lucky to own the original, uncensored 'Freedom Suite' in our LP collection.

Thanks to staff member Jack Ritchie for highlighting the history of this work.
