From the Director's Corner
LEAVE A LEGACY: We are growing our Endowment Fund with the Community Foundation for Muskegon County. In the future, we will be able to draw from the fund for any expenses of the library. If we had $1 million in the account, we would be able to draw approximately $40,000 annually to help the library provide a myriad of services and resources we would like to offer, but cannot currently afford.
Please consider making a gift to the White Lake Community Library Fund of the Community Foundation for Muskegon County. For more information, contact me at 231-894-9531 or whisw@llcoop.org.
BOOK SALE COMING: We need book sorters for all the books we have in the basement. If you have an hour or two to spare, just drop by and we will show you how to sort for us. We have sooooo many books because our Summer Book Sale is coming: August 23 from 5-6 PM for Friends members’ sneak preview (memberships can be paid at the door) and 6-8 PM open to the public; August 24 from 10 AM – 4 PM and August 25 from 10 AM – 3 PM for the all-day $2/bag sale. For your shopping convenience, we now accept credit cards, too.
Now is a good time to sort through those books you don’t have room to keep. Bring in donations early so we have time to sort them. We will stop taking donations the week of the sale.
Please note, the library will be closed Friday, August 17 for an in-service day. Items can be dropped off at the book drop. Anything picked up Saturday will be back-dated to Friday.
