2020 Proved Challenging to The Friends Accomplishing their Goals
The Friends developed new methods, in a time of Covid Restrictions, to provide patrons access to The Friends Book Store while supporting the library.
Mobilized carts filled with books went to the Amery Farmers Market.
Friends were on hand outside the library for patrons to browse book carts and request materials.
Friends and library staff joined to celebrate the sixth annual 'February Love Your Library', with self service book carts under the library's front door canopy. The Membership drive has always been a fun event and this years 'Book Grab' will be most memorable.
