THE LIBRI FOUNDATION


*Joie-de-vivre! We were awarded a grant for 40 new children's books from The Libri Foundation! This exciting award has added new books to our children's collection. The infusion of new and classic literature is invaluable for our small library. A special thanks goes to Barbara McKillip and the Libri Foundation for offering libraries this opportunity.

Here you see one of the books being share with our pre-school readers. We were all enjoying the fall weather, reading under the trees on our front lawn.

*Joie-de-vivre! Joy of life. This is what one young mom said when she heard about the new books.
