DEAR - Drop Everything And Read day. The
library will be asking patrons to drop everything and read for a least
30 minutes on this day. We will keep tract of how many in each age group
that reads their 30 minutes (Children, Young Adults and Adults). Patrons
being honest is taken for granted. They don't win anything but the
knowledge from reading for 30 minutes at least and being a part of the
age group that read the most.
Which will be announced in my next monthly report in May for April and
in the Chamber newsletter.

Library Services and what we can do to better serve them in the library.

Volunteers
We are always looking for good volunteers willing to help us.
Please contact us if you would like to volunteer!
All year, from January 1 to December 31 each year we keep track
of all our volunteer hours our volunteers put into our library. We honor the
top volunteer who puts the most hours into our library for the year at our
Annual Volunteer Recognition Luncheon. Each volunteer no matter how much time
they put into our library is invited and recognized with a certificate. And if
they donate a minimum of 20 hours for the year they will receive their
certificate and a really nice volunteer pin also. The top volunteer with the
most hours also receives a very nice gift and their name and their volunteer
year are engraved on a name plate and put on a nice plaque we display in our
library at the circulation desk for everyone to see. Our Volunteer Recognition
Luncheon date will be announced later here on our library web site, under
CURRENT EVENTS. We just want to add one more thing as the library director and staff, we truly appreciate ALL our volunteers. (Volunteers
must be at least 16 years of age.
