Spring is coming after a cold, cold winter! I was able to get
lots of reading in during this time and have been getting
books ready to donate for our upcoming Book Sale! I love
the excitement as we move into spring and do our Drive
Up/ Drop Offs (one was cancelled due to snow)! I enjoy all
the volunteers here unloading books, taking them in and
putting them on the shelves for the sale! Again, it is due to our volunteers
and those who donate that we have such successful sales! Also
the groups who help us such as Twin Lakes and the Mebane Woman’s
Group working with us.
As sale time approaches, we have trainings, volunteer lunches and
everyone signs up to work shifts at the sale. It is wonderful to be around
such a fun group who share the love of books. I encourage you to join
us if you are able for the hectic fun and fellowship. I appreciate our
wonderful sale leaders this spring; Jen Archer and Hal Vincent! They
are working hard to get everything ready to go.
Another great group is the Friends of the Library Board. We see the results
of all the hard work of our sales in what goes on in our libraries.
We try to meet in different libraries during the year to see all they are
doing. The changes in Mebane and Graham have been so inspiring to
see. I recommend visiting each branch if you can. Each has its own atmosphere
and culture. We are always looking for those interested in
joining our board. We meet each month for an hour. Please reach out
and let me know if you would be interested in being on our board to
support our libraries.
See you at the book sale!
