THANK YOU ........ We did it.... In a little less than 6 months we raised more than the $70,000 that the city needed to keep Easton Library open through July 2011.
To celebrate, and give back to the community the city has agreed to re-instate Friday service at the branch starting in January 2011.
Even though we raised the money for this year we still have to face the reality that the branch costs the city $70,000+ a year and in this time of reduced public services we have to continue to fund raise to ensure that the branch and main library can provide the high level of services that we all enjoy. Please consider donating to support our libraries.
