Our next meeting is cancled due to the Book Sale. At the April meeting we voted to schedule future regular meetings to start at 3PM. We don't hold an August meeting so the next regular meeting will be Wednesday September 5th at 3PM. The Annual meeting is Oct 3rd at 3PM, it will be an afternoon tea with light refreshments. If you are so inclined feel free to bring your favorite tea cup or mug.
GENERAL: At the January meeting we approved a Library monetary request for $6,900 for the coming year, just $400 more than 2017. Additionally we approved a Library proposed project to purchase a large screen TV and associated electronics to be installed in the Riverview room. We are using money raised a few years ago when we were a partner in the annual Rotary Auction to pay for the $1500 system.
ongoing BOOK SALES: If you need a book and cannot wait till the next sale, please check out our book sale rack next to the circulation desk, a larger rack means an expanded selection of books are available for purchase whenever the library is open, books at the low price of $1.00 or less. Donation of clean books are being accepted. Please bring books to the Library during normal operating hours. Thank you for your support.
SPRING BOOK SALE: We are pleased to announce the sale was a great success and made $1,061 during this three day sale. Thank you all who helped make this another great sale.
