At its July 18, 2014, meeting, the Douglas County Law Library Board of Trustees voted unanimously to rename the Law Library for the Honorable Michael J. Malone, who is retiring after having served 32 years on the bench of Division IV of the Seventh Judicial District of Kansas. It will hereafter be known as the Michael J. Malone Douglas County Law Library. Judge Malone was the driving force behind the establishment and development of the Library.
The name change was announced publicly on August 28th at a retirement dinner for Judge Malone sponsored by the Douglas County Bar Association on the eve of his last official day of work in Division IV.
