9 oz. each of lime juice, cherry juice and water, and
2 cups of sugar in a punch bowl.
If you would like it to taste more cherry-limey:

After 25 years of service to Ellis Library, Sue Barnes, head of Serials, has retired. As well as managing her day-to-day tasks in the Acquisitions department, she also served as Community Service chair for MULSA, organizing collections to benefit local charitable groups including the food bank and Rainbow House. Sue’s last day in the office was December 10. A reception was held in her honor. The treats included carrot cake, pinwheel sandwiches, and punch. We will miss Sue and wish her the best!

I would encourage everyone to read the “Today in History” section.
As a part of ongoing modernization, some collections migrated to new presentations. Collections that have been migrated no longer appear in internal American Memory search results and browse lists. To search all Library collections (including American Memory) please visit loc.gov/search, or browse collections at loc.gov/collections. You can also use the links below to go to the new presentations:
