Many thanks to the Friends of the Library, all the volunteers, and shoppers who helped make the book sale such a success this year! Thanks to the proceeds from the sale and your annual donations, the Friends of Library will continue to be able to provide funding for special projects that help the Library go "above and beyond!" The Friends are currently providing funding for updated furnishings and décor in the original section of the Library. Stop by and see how things are being transformed!
