After reading The Personal Librarian by Marie Benedict, members of the Sustainers Bookmarks group embarked on a trip to New York City this November to further immerse themselves in the story of Belle da Costa Greene, the trailblazing personal librarian of J.P. Morgan.

Their journey led them to The Morgan Library & Museum, where they explored an exhibit dedicated to Greene’s extraordinary contributions to the literary world. The visit offered a deeper appreciation for the historical figure behind the novel and her enduring legacy.
