Youth Group assists in sorting at St. Paul's distribution center

A Youth group from Green Valley Church of God in St. Albans participated in a service project at St. Paul's Lutheran Church with Nell Fleming, Librarian, to organize all remaining donations from 2008/2009. In 2 hours the group from St. Albans, consisting of 15 youth and five adults built five book shelves and organized 95% of the books alphabetically and by genre on the shelves. Nell estimates the group did three months worth of work in 2 hours for Step by Step which will enable the new librarian who will start in January to get a head start in re-distribution with new wish lists received from teachers, youth and organizations which serve youth at poverty level. Thank you so much!

15 boxes of large print and audio books re-distributed to Senior Centers

15 boxes of large print materials and audio books were re-distributed to senior centers around Kanawha County. Thanks to the donation by the Kanawha County Public Library after their annual book sale at the West Virginia Book Festival approximately 750 books were given to seniors around the county. Thank you also to VISTA Waylan Bryant for delivering these boxes to all five centers. Way to go!
