National Friends of the Library Week is October 21-27! Libraries are so thankful for FRIENDS; and CMRLS Libraries have a lot of FRIENDS for which to be thankful. Our FRIENDS make equipment, books, holiday decorating, refreshments, programs, and more possible in all of the CMRLS Libraries. If you are interested in working with a group to support your Library and better your community, a FRIEND to Your Library is what you want to be! Annual membership begins as low as $2 for students. Ask the staff at your library for information and become a FRIEND to YOUR Library. ♦♦♦ |
