The Library is fortunate to have great staff and great volunteers. This year over 40 volunteers have been supporting staff in keeping the collections in order and the library neat and attractive, providing educational and cultural programs, indexing and preserving local history materials, and helping customers with technology. Volunteers take books to the homebound and get packets ready for families with new babies.  Volunteers even help raise funds to ease the profound budget cuts we've been experiencing lately.   Some are as young as seven, while others have been retired longer than that.  While many have just started, a few have been with us for decades!  Some are in the military, others are students, and a few are unemployed,  All make the choice to serve our community.  Your library wouldn't be the same place without them.  Please join us in expressing appreciation to these generous folks.
