Cletus Posner, the reference librarian, was appointed the interim director at the board meeting. Posner was too emotional to talk, but people like Mark Lafave hope the new interim director and newly appointed board members, including his son, can carry on the projects dreamed of by Hommerding. “He’ll be sworn into seat four,” Lafave said. “And hopefully take up the mantle of the projects Leroy and I had been working on for years.” But at the end of the day, Lafave was still uncertain. “I truly believe that projects we have in the works will never be fulfilled because of this loss,” Lafave said.
