Teacher Appreciation
The Friends of the Library will be honoring local teachers at this year's book sale.
The Friends are sponsoring Teacher Recognition Day from 2-6pm on Saturday November 14 to thank teachers for their dedication and contribution to our community. All local teachers with their school ID will receive 20% off book sale purchases on Saturday afternoon. Collectors Corner items are not included in this offer.
Additionally, you can honor your child's teacher or other special teacher by placing them on the Friend's "Teacher Honor Roll" at the 2009 Sale by making a $25 donation to the Friends. The teacher you honor will receive a $10 shopping gift certificate for the sale. They may use this anytime during the sale. This makes a great thank-you gift for your child's teachers.
