GIVE A GIFT TO THE CHILDREN OF WASHINGTON COUNTY THROUGH THE LIBRARY “GIVING TREE”

       Are you looking for ways to teach your child the spirit of giving and sharing this holiday season?  The Washington County Public Library and 153 West Booksellers have come up with a unique way for you to do just that, while helping the library increase its selection of excellent new children’s books.

           On November 22^nd a Christmas tree at 153 West will be decorated with ornaments bearing the name of a new book the library needs. The books range in price from $10 to $20 and you may buy one or more of these for the library’s collection.  The Library will place a bookplate thanking you for your generosity right inside the book! You and your family will be able to come to the library and check out the book you’ve donated, and lots of other families will get to enjoy it as well. 

           The Library Giving Tree will be on display through the end of December. This is a great way to share the gift of reading with your community!
