Before the Library Tables existed, I designed and created similar tables but with a Corvette theme. I submitted a pair of them to the Algonquin Public Art Display program and was accepted. They were placed in the library for a one-year display. And they weren’t just shown, but used on an ongoing basis. As the end of the display period drew near, the librarians knew they would lose the tables that they saw and appreciated each day. So they hit upon the idea of commissioning two tables of their own.
