She was considered by one source to be one of the most important leaders in library science in the 20th century.〔Kniffle, Leonard; Sullivan, Peggy; McCormick, Edith:(1999). 100 of the most important leaders we had in the 20th century.''American Libraries,'Page 38〕 ==Biography== Mary Virginia Gaver was the oldest of three children born to Clayton Daniel Gaver and Ruth Lydia Clendenning Gaver. She was born on December 10, 1906 in Washington D.C.〔Pioneers and Leaders in Library Services to Youth: A Biographical Dictionary. (2009). Westport: Libraries Unlimited, Inc.〕 Her siblings were brother, Perry, who died of an injury while attending Virginia Tech, and Lydia, a history teacher at Stratford College. Mary's father relocated the family to the mill town of Danville, Virginia located in Pittsylvania County. Her father's family had owned and operated Gaver Woolen Mill in Hillsboro, Virginia in the 1800s. She arrived in Danville in 1912 and lived there for much of her life. It was her life in the impoverished area that had an impact on her and shaped much of what she did later in her career as an educator, author and a librarian. Gaver's interest in books was displayed when she was very young. Since her mother was a teacher, she had grown up in a family where books were an important component to education and enrichment. While still a young child, she discovered that many of the local school children in Schoolfield Virginia, which is a suburb of Danville, did not have access to books. To help alleviate this situation, she convinced her mother to help collect money to start a school library in this nearby town. Mary Gaver and her mother solicited donations door-to-door and gathered $100 that was then graciously matched by executives at Dan River Mill, where her father was executive secretary to the president, for a total of $200.〔Obituary (1992). (). Wilson Library Bulletin, 66(February).〕 This was enough to get a good start on a school library for the area children. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mary Virginia Gaver」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
