Miss Cora Joan Haeussler, a school teacher, became the Alden Public Library librarian for three years, from October 4, 1914 to March 1, 1917, after taking the librarian’s course in Iowa City.

After leaving the library, Miss Cora left for Michigan, and married Lars Haugen, Norwegian Ski Jumper of Lake Arrowhead, California in 1933.  They moved to Minneapolis, Minnesota after their honeymoon, and she died in 1997 at the age of 103, buried in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
