BCPL Director Kelly Millis is all smiles after recieving the coveted Texas Library Association's GLBT Issues Committee's Awareness Award for his novel, A Man Named Kim: A Middle Aged Man Comes to Terms with His Sexuality.
This is Millis' first novel and the first award from a library body that BCPL has ever won. Noah Retro, Millis' close friend and Children's Librarian at BCPL assisted with the research for the novel and contributed the forward to the book.
BCPL kicked off a week-long celebration with attendees from the Texas chapter of NAMBLA. Unfortunately for Millis, someone stole the plaque for the award and replaced it with human feces with the word "A Cleveland Steamer for Kelly," written on a note.
