The Children's Department is the most heavily used area of the Library and we want to continue to keep it full of attractive and relevant books.
We are hoping the impact library service has on our community will inspire you to contribute to this year's efforts.
Last year your efforts helped raise nearly $40,000 and made it possible to add hundreds of books for our youngest readers. Won't you help us again this year?! |
