VOLUNTEER WEEK 2013

In our last two posts, we wrote about some of our older books in the collection. Now we're focusing on taking care of all the books in the Bullis Room.

Lot of work goes into maintaining this collection. Over the years we've cataloged,  shelved, sorted, repaired, and restored books while also setting up, organizing, cleaning and dusting the room they are in. All of this takes lots of volunteers, and we are always in need of more.

In 2013 National Volunteer Week runs from April 21 to April 27, but we don't have to wait until then to get involved.  The beginning of this new year is a good time for all of us to be thinking about how we can use some of our spare time to help our community.

We hope that you will consider the Bullis Room when you're doing your volunteer planning. If you'd like more specific information about what sort of tasks are involved, please stop by the library and ask for June. She'll give you a tour and fill you in.
