Buy Us a Best Seller! Save on Wait Time!
Want to read the newest Best Seller without the wait? The library is now accepting monetary donations to purchase titles from a preselected list. For fiction titles we are asking $15 and for non-fiction it will vary depending on the book selected. Once we receive payment we will order the titles you selected and when they come in we will rush them through processing and put your name

you want them. Contact Susan Morgan, ext. 127, for more information about titles. We appreciate your support as we have less available funds for purchasing books.
