ANNIE B’s COMMUNITY DRIVE ENTERS FINAL YEAR
As reported in the Enterprise-Record last month, this August and September mark the final months of the Annie B Community Drive. During this period contributions to your Chico Friends of the Library are increased in amount if they are made through the Annie B’s Community Drive. This is a painless way to add to your support for CFOL and the library. Plan to visit the North Valley Community Foundation website at http://www.nvcf.org/donate, which manages the fund drive, during August or September, to make your CFOL donation. Contributions to the Chico Friends of the Library enable purchases of books, subscriptions, other materials, equipment, remodeling and a variety of programs for children, teens, and adults. Your CFOL urges you to take advantage of this final opportunity to amplify the impact of your donation.
BOOK SALES CONTINUE
The members-only First Friday book sale will be held on Friday, August 5 from 2:00 to 4:00 pm in the Chico library’s conference room. Don’t miss this opportunity to bask in the air conditioning as you browse the many bargain items in a more leisurely atmosphere than prevails at the regular Saturday morning (9:00 to 11:30 am) sales. Invite a non-member friend to join you at the Friday sale to demonstrate one of the benefits of membership. Fill a shopping bag with books and pay only $1 for the entire purchase! Daily sales and discount specials on the specially designated shelves inside the library and in the lobby have proved to be extremely popular and a significant source of income for your CFOL. Thanks to all the CFOL book sale volunteers who have made these efforts highly successful.
