Our September book sale returned $2,955.93 for our efforts. Thank you one and all for your patronage.  Our reasonably priced used books profit our Library Branch in many ways. Programs and non-budget items that are not included in Tax Payer funding are made available by our efforts and your patronage. Books also are kept out of landfills and there are many excellent non-fiction topics and fictionalized literature to enhance your reading pleasure for a minimal amount of cash.  

Our next book sale will be held in the Community Room on Saturday, November 14, from 10:00am to 2pm.  If you are thinking of volunteering, set up is on Friday November 13, from 9:00am to noon and Saturday sale hours will be from 9:00am to 3:00pm, which includes our sales and the clean-up and packing away of books. We would love to have your help and we share food for lunch on Saturday, if you care to bringing something.  If you have ordered or would like to have a PFOL T-shirts, they will be available at the meeting.

We are beginning to plan for the PFOL Holiday Pot Luck to be held on Monday, December 7. Volunteers will be needed and requested at the October 5th General    Meeting. You may be contacted by our Volunteer Co-Ordinator, Carol Larsen, if you leave a phone number or email.
