SUMMER BOOK SALE IS COMING!!
The Friends of the Library's big summer book sale starts bright and early on Saturday June 14th this year. Those smart and generous enough to join the Friends get first crack at the books at the preview sale on Friday, June 13th, from 6-7:30 P.M. Donations of books in good shape may be dropped off at the library anytime. If you have several boxes, it helps to call ahead so a cart is available.
Friends of the Library
"Are you a Friend of the Library?"We ask this question often during our membership drive, and most people say "Yes." Who doesn't love the Library? There is a difference, however, between being a friend and being a Friend. So, what does it mean to be a Friend of the Library?
At a recent Friends' meeting, Library Director Hal Pratt described it this way: Think of the Library as a bowl of ice cream, a wonderful treat. Can it be improved? Of course, and the enhancements of bananas, whipped cream, syrup, jimmies, or whatever you like best, make that bowl of ice cream very special.
That's what Friends are. We add the toppings. We enhance the Library through our efforts to improve the choice of materials, the appearance and the programming. We do this through membership, book sales, and book bag sales. In the last five years, we, the Friends, have purchased more than $15,000 in added benefits for our Library.
This year, when you renew your membership, or become a new Friend, try to think of one other person who might be willing to sprinkle some jimmies on the ice cream. Together, we can make this Library something even more special. Thank you for your support.
