Help support Mary Meuser Memorial Library
by participating in our new Adopt-A- Book Program
Due to substantial funding cuts at State and Local levels, we are developing a “Book Adoption” program to help keep new books on the shelves. Here’s how it works:
* Each month the Library will display a list of books that the Library would like to purchase. If you would like to be the first to read the book, you may make a donation toward the purchase price. Our cost will be displayed alongside each title. You can still reserve the book free-of-charge, but donors get the first read.
* Or, purchase one of the books on the list yourself, and when you are finished reading it, donate it to the Library. Just fill out a donor form so we know what book to expect as a donation. Your book donations are tax deductible.
For more information, drop by the Circulation Desk and talk to our Adult Services Librarian, Wende Fazio. Thanks in advance for your interest.
