DISPLAYS IN THE EASY SECTION

All the displays on the top of the EASY bookshelves are now labeled with the collection that should be displayed in them. This is to avoid indiscriminate displaying of books.
Seasonal books may be displayed as the Youth Services directs. Currently the Valentine books are on the slats at the front of the Youth Services desk.

DVDs coming soon... (I hope)!

So far we have had 61 movies donated! Please feel free to encourage anyone you know that might donate movies, especially children, family viewing, or classics. We will accept all donations!

We need to top 200 DVDs to open this collection for loan. I have submitted a grant to assist with funding the DVD collection and will learn if it is successful in February. Hopefully, we will continue to get DVD donations from residents AND get the grant awarded.

Feel free to mention to your friends, clubs, scouts, or other groups, that we are seeking donations to establish this new collection. The more people that know - the better! Thank you.
