Through the dedicated efforts of numerous contributors and fund-raising events, Bucks for Books has just reached the goal to raise $57,000 by the end of June 2008. Last July our materials budget was reduced to half of the previous year and the target amount of $57,000 was the total needed for us to remain certified with the state. Since last summer, library users have regularly made cash donations to our donation boxes on the Circulation Counter and have written generous checks to benefit our library materials budget shortfall this fiscal year. Big events such as yard sales, the Patriots Football Raffle, Murder Mystery Theater and the Mini-Golf in the Library Tournament also made giant strides towards the goal. Million thanks to everyone for their generosity and support.
The library will hold a yard sale and bake sale to raise money for Bucks for Books from 9 am to 1 pm on Friday May 2nd and Saturday May 3rd in the Southworth Library Haskell Auditorium. Donations are welcome and can be dropped off at the library April 28th through April 30th between 9 am and 8 pm. No clothing, stuffed animals or electronics.
