Leaonead Justine Pack Drain-Bailey (January 28, 1906-March 29, 1983) was an American librarian and educator, the former Head of Library at West Virginia State University from 1949 through 1956.

[6] While at WVSU she compiled bibliographies and published research including a survey of library fine and repayment levels among 37 colleges serving Black students.

[4] After her retirement from the library, she published Broadside authors and artists; an illustrated biographical directory which she compiled and edited.

This book grew out of an association with Dudley Randall, a University of Detroit colleague, who owned Broadside Press.

[8] Bailey created, distributed, and compiled responses to a survey sent to all of Broadside Press's authors and published it in a 136-page volume.
