A thank you goes out to all the supportive people that have donated gently used materials to the library for  this fundraiser.  In addition, a portion of the items for sale have been deselected from the library’s various collections to make room for new materials.

The dedicated volunteers that assist on sale days are essential, and keep the offerings organized and the daily activities running smoothly.  Interested in helping out?  Call the library at 989 781-3770 to sign up.
