Anne Camp was very devoted to her family and community and very modest of her accomplishments.
Mrs. Camp had a long and active career as the Muleshoe Area Public Librarian. She held the position for 32 years, postponing retirement to computerize the library cataloging system. She passed a love of reading on to so many people in the community. She dedicated numerous hours to the Summer Reading Program and weekly Story Hour for children.
Anne Camp dreamed for years of a new library with much more room for additional books and better facility for the Story Hour. The dream came true in 1972 when she oversaw the building of the current library. She has since been honored with The Anne Camp Meeting Room at the facility.
Mrs. Camp was selected as the City of Muleshoe’s Woman of the Year in 1978.
Anne Camp was active in many organizations that provided wonderful support, funds and education to many people. She was an active member of the Friends of the Library, Tales and Trails of Bailey County History Book Committee (a 400 page book compiled with family stories of the first seventy years 1918-1988 of settlement in Bailey County), Jenny Slippers, Bailey County Cemetery Association, Meals on Wheels and many more.
