Maybe your income has been reduced or limited. Or maybe you’re cautiously cutting back because you’re unsure of what tomorrow holds. Well, let me share with you what librarians have known for years:
“Libraries will get you through times of no money better than money will get you through times of no libraries.”
Isn’t that sweet?!?
Lets unwrap this sweetness!

A fellow librarian recently calculated that
“the average yearly value to every library card used is $706”
That really is a SWEET DEAL!
FREE, FREE, FREE, FREE, FREE!
We must raise 60% of our operating budget. This library has been offering Free Services since 1856 and will continue to, but we need your help to make that possible!!
Please, help us stay a sweet deal-
