Gordon Van de Water of Diamond Bar is the newly elected president of the Patrons of the Library, Cal State Fullerton’s oldest support group. He will serve a two-year term.

Also elected to the 2003-04 board for one-year terms are officers Joyce Mason, second vice president, activities; Lynn Coppel, third vice president, book selection; and treasurer Claude Coppel — all of Fullerton. San Juan Capistrano resident George Pollak was voted first vice president, membership, and Dorothy Heide of Villa Park is secretary.

Serving three-year terms as newly elected board members are Farron Brougher of Orange, Fullerton resident Carolyn Eckert and Howard Seller of Irvine.

Continuing their terms as board members are Robert Jehnke, June Pollak, Helen Hayner, Marion Moll, Herbert Rutemiller, Suzanne Serbin, Shirley Stephenson and Albert Vogeler.

Founded in 1965, the Patrons of the Library promote the importance of the Paulina June and George Pollak Library to the future development of Cal State Fullerton and the community. With funds raised through book sales, lecture series, donations and memberships, the organization acquires books that the library’s state budget cannot cover, thus enhancing the facility’s existing collection. They also sponsor field trips, a book discussion group and exhibits in the Atrium Gallery.
